Board Meeting

March 2, 2020

The meeting was called to order at 9:11 at Sandy Mackey’s home.

In attendance were:  Sandy Mackey, Janet Ford, Fletcher Olsen, Nancy Watanabe, Judy Burger, Sara Ito and Randi Wilson.

Sara moved  to approve and Judy seconded the motion to approve the minutes of the Nov. 11, 2019 meeting.  Approved.

Treasurers Report: Judy gave a brief summary of the income and expenditures to date.  Including the earmarked expenditures there should be approximately $1,000 remaining in the account.  The surplus was attributed to the increase in the number of members.  (Expenditures are based on the basic minimum of 40 members and this year there were 51.)  Sara moved to accept the treasurers report and Nancy seconded the motion.  Approved.

Website:  Sandy thanked Sara for setting up the new website and having it up and working quickly.  It is working well with few problems.

Janet thanked Sara for informing everyone of the new handicap system and explaining how to use it.

Sara will work on getting the meeting minutes posted on the website.

Tournaments:  Review of the 2020 tournaments.

Fletcher said she had positive feedback on the tournaments.

Fletcher brought up the pace of play in the Club Championship being effected by parings in foursomes rather than threesomes.

Club Championship changes:

Sara moved that the championship flight will be made up of those whose handicaps qualify and others who may want to be paired in the championship flight.  If your handicap doesn’t qualify you for the championship flight you must declare at sign up you want to play in that flight.  Following the first day of play players will be paired in their designated flights no matter what they shoot.  Fletcher seconded the motion.  Approved.

Fletcher moved to award an overall net winner in the club championship.  Nancy seconded the motion.  Approved.

Fletcher moved that “follow the field” players would be allowed to sign up for all tournaments except the club championship.  Sara seconded the motion.  Approved

Lea Lea Cup:

Fletcher moved that the Lea Lea Cup format return to the Ryder Cup style of team competition.  Judy seconded the motion.  Approved.
