The minutes of the Mach 29, 2017 meeting were reviewed on-line and sent to each board member.  Each had revisions and revised minutes re-sent and approved.


Treasurer Arnie Aviles submitted the treasurer report that reflected a balance of
$5,160.18. A motion to approve the treasurer's report was made by Rich Guzik with a second offered by Jack Ullom.  The motion was approved unanimously.

Old Business

Since instituting the recording of times at the beginning of play and at the 10th hole, finishing times have improved.  An example is that last week, (tournament), the last group finished at 4:25.  This week the last group finished at 4:15.

Scholarship fund was short $250 and was made up with general funds.  The shortage occurred because the number of months to accrue the funds was shorter by three months this year.  The general fund will be reimbursed over the next couple of months and the scholarship will be issued in September of 2018.

A motion was made by Dan Matthews to award scholarships to Oxnard and Ventura the High school seniors rather than that of the whole county.  The motion failed to get a second.

New Business

Discussion on the impact of the new proposed rules of golf.  Will they impact our weekly and monthly play?  Matthews will pull website information and distribute to the board for discussion at our next board meeting.

Discussion of bare spots being Ground Under Repair even though they might not be outlined with white paint.  Arnie will look up the appropriate decision and distribute to board via email and discussed at next meeting.

Club Championship in August.  Three groups: Overall Gross (THE Club champion) played from the White tees, Overall Net played from White and Gold with the differential being applied for competition from different tee boxes, Super Senior Championship played from Gold or white tees with the differential for tee boxes applied. $10 to enter championship but there will also be regular completion at $5 each day. First day will be August 16th and final day (shotgun and lunch) on the 23rd.  The club championship will pay the three winners and runner-ups.  Payouts are estimated to be $100 to Champion, $75 to Super Senior Gross and $50 to Overall Net.  The 4 low gross players from the whites, on the first day, would play together, from the #1 tee on the second day, followed by the 4 low gross from the SS entries.

Discussion on the November monthly tournament that is supposed to be computer generated foursomes and played as a scramble.  Some on the board thought that we would have a poor turnout so it was decided that Matthews would send an email to the membership and ask them if once a year they would like to meet some of the other members.

Don Luxmore made a motion that our end of month Nassau tournament be paid out to 25% of those in each flight.  Seconded by Matthews and all agreed.

A motion to adjourn the meeting was made by Arnie Aviles and seconded by Don Luxmore.  The motion passed at 3:30pm

The membership luncheon that was normally held in December was changed to January 18, 2017.  The reason for the change was due to the recent fire at the golf course which did major damage to the dining hall.

A discussion was held regarding players who don't show for their assigned tee time and do not notify the Pro Shop.  This has been a problem and Rich Guzik and Dan Matthews will work together to come up with a plan to improve the situation.

A problem with slow play was also discussed.  It was suggested that there should be at least one more marshall assigned to each course on Wednesdays.  That would help monitor the speed of play.  With more players on the course on Wednesdays, which includes the Senior Men's Club, another marshal would also be able to help in responding quicker to any emergencies which may occur on the courses.

The Hole in One pot was to be capped at $2,000.00.  Any amount collected over the $2,000.00 willl be applied to the Scholarship Fund.

A discussion was held regarding the membership application and the requirement to fill a new one out when the annual renewal is due.  After a great deal of discussion, it was decided not to make any changes to the form.
