No one volunteered.

     Committee Reports:

          Sports:  The sign-up sheet will be posted for the FCC Club championship tournament 
on July 19 and 20.  #1 tee box will be closed until all players have teed off and then the course
 will be open to all members.

          Building:  Roofing of the cart sheds is still in progress.  Jeff Harmon reports that they
 should by completed soon.  The contractor missed the size of the building and will need to 
get an additional 50 bundles of shingles and is asking for an advance to purchase the shingles. 
 The total bid for the job will remain the same.
          An estimate to replace the upstairs air conditioner for $6000.00 has been received. 
 After discussion the replacement was tabled at this time.  The old unit has been worked on.  
Placing ceiling fans upstairs was discussed, but it was decided that the ceiling is too low.  
          A consolidated energy proposal from some company has been discussing their program
 with Rich Winkel, CPA.  After discussion the Board voted to cease discussions with the company.

          Grounds & Greens:  Grub control will be applied within the next two weeks.  The trimming 
of trees and placing of mulch will continue.  Overtime hours of employees was discussed with
 the Superintendent.  He will try to schedule hours to eliminate overtime.  The sprayer has been 
repaired by a shop in Davenport.

          Bar & Pro Shop:  The Fulton Booster Club tournament was held June 21 with total receipts
 of $1666.50.  The upstairs is rented July 5 for the Eizenga shower.  Rock-N-Roll night is scheduled 
for July 26.
          Debra Smith has found other employment and has been replaced by hiring Marsha Determan 
in the Bar & Pro Shop.

          Old & New Business:  Linda Gilbert has told the President that all invoices for flowers have
 been turned in.  

          A motion was made, seconded and carried to allow non-members to have unlimited use 
of the driving range for a fee of $200.00 per year. 

         An additional 100 dozen new range balls have been purchased.

          The Clinton National Bank has requested permission to bring approximately 80 people to 
the Club on a Wednesday or Friday evening in September, to play golf and eat, but the cost was 
not to exceed $1500.00.  They also requested perhaps placing a volleyball net on the grounds.  
They were informed that we could not supply golf carts for 80 people.  
A motion was made and approved to accept their proposal.  
Kathy will be directed to contact them.

          A motion was made and approved to have no penalty for hitting a ball into the 
“no mow areas”.  The ball can be dropped where it entered.  Hopefully, this will speed up play.  

     The meeting adjourned at 7:25 P.M.  The next regular scheduled meeting will be July 29, 2008 
at the club house.

Respectfully submitted,


Richard Bielenberg, Pres.
