Sam Masters discussed the Christmas Party and Picnic. He stated that volunteers are needed for both of these functions.
In response to a member's suggestion that the Board consider changes in the rules of play for members over the age of 80, the Board consulted each of these members. The ‘over 80 year old’ Members, not being comfortable with changing the tee placements for them, suggested no changes be instituted. The Board dropped the issue.
Chuck Hite discussed needing volunteers for the Buy.Com Tournament.
Meeting adjourned at 9:00 AM.
