be delayed to late August at earliest and likely the 4th Quarter 2023.
New permanent “Tent” outside of the Pro Shop planned for April.
No more golf course changes planned at this time (Tree removals, sand trap eliminations, tee box
changes). Two layers of top dressing have been added to the fairways – should show thickness by end
of Spring.
NEW BUSINESS: “Root Rule” confirmed by Mike Brown. As of 3/1, ball resting on/near exposed tree
roots or cart path edge; player can clean & place within 1 club length with no penalty. However, the
player has responsibility to notify playing partners FIRST.
Motion taken – unanimous vote . “Root Rule” carried and adopted.
Mike Brown – handed us a report of the last Charbonneau Green & Golf Committee minutes (2/19). The
Minutes show the timetable for landscaping projects and repairs needed on each course. (copy
available)
Tom Taylor – CMC Website Review. Tom showed the board the new feature of the CMC website for
signing in and for going to the player listing tab – controlled by GG.
Players (members) can check calendar, game results and tee sheets without using a sign in.
Sign In requires opening the top right tab and entering an ID code: “CMC2023”
The ‘Sign In’ accesses the Player information: Name, email, Ghin Handicap, and phone number.
Tom said there will be a training session planned for 3/30.
Richard said the ‘new’ members are listed, but may not have a Ghin handicap yet. Individual members
cannot change their player profiles on their own – Bill Stout’s group can assist to make a change needed.
Vice President Report: Groshong: Invitational Committee report
Spence (re: the Invitational) handed out the expense listings from the last Invitational (2019). He
compared the 2019 expenses with the proposed cost table Chris Bensel produced last month. With a
player entry fee, this year of $225, and with help gathering a modest list of Sponsors, the 2023
Invitational should be close to the budget Chris suggested. Spence said we will need 60 Teams
Minimum. CMC prefers to have 100% of the teams with a current Member. Spence may write up a
brief survey asking CMC members whether they plan to participate in this Event with a friend. The hope
is to keep the Invitational among CMC members and their guests. Perry Esterson may compose a brief
message to be used to gain Sponsors.
Invitational Planning Meetings, by committee, will be active in the next couple of months
