October’s tournament will be at Mt. Vintage. Ken Brace toured the club and said it
was in great shape.
December’s tournament will be at Gordon Lakes (Fort Gordon). Entry to the course
should easier than in the past.
Open Discussion
A ‘lively’ discussion took place addressing our low participation rate and what
needs to be done about it. Points made:
* Move the meetings back to the Grille
* Hold the meetings less frequently
* Conduct a ‘strategy session’ meeting and solicit ideas from the membership.
John Moynihan will carry the discussion / action forward from here.
