Prairie Center League

• Cade Garrelts proposes to run the league at PC and sponsor it with a donation of $200 in cash and $200 in merch from the Flight Plan store. Flight Plan also suggests offering an Add-on for 20 league nights divided into 2 blocks.

Lakeside Hills

• Mark Schmitz requests a mini-grant from KCDG to match the expenses from the city on new tee pads and baskets to expedite the process. Pete and John express support for the positive changes and redesign of the course. Rob Martin seeks permission for a fundraising tournament at the course and asks about the possibility of waiving the $3 fee. The board votes and approves the event—further discussions will take place to decide on waiving the $3 fee.

Website

• John Jones cannot offer updates on the new website due to computer issues. Pete will follow up and potentially record a Zoom call to post on the forum for the board of directors’ review.

Icebowl
