Reviewed 2016 Fiscal Year Finances: A question concerning the alcohol sales was asked and the board will look in to the question and get back to the members.
Discussed Outstanding 2016 Bills: There is a significant amount of dollars still owed to many vendors. The board will prioritize them with the local ones to be paid first. The rest will be paid as funds come in during the next several months.

Plans for 2017: Discussed the hiring of a new Consultant/Manager for the course. There was a question concerning his contract. Board committed to provide it when it is completed and signed. Much knowledge can be gained from the new consultant to improve the golf course especially the greens. A used greens sprayer and fairway mower will be purchased from the Falls City course, plus the manager has promised to let us borrow other equipment for the course.
