 Most people who have them now are willing to renew and keep theirs. There may be 2 or 3 
that won’t renew them. A discussion followed, the price of new signs will be small ones $80,
 large one’s $ 90) a motion was made by Van Zuiden and seconded by Workman to set the

include the price of making the signs. Motion approved.

Housenga presented the cost of fencing materials to be installed along #1 fairway. 
Total cost should not exceed $200 so it was decided we would do it ourselves with volunteer
 labor yet this fall or early spring. Cost to have chain link fence installed would be about $1500.

A presentation was made by the Building Committee to remodel the Men’s 
restroom/locker room and the outside hallway. Much discussion followed pertaining to

Remodel will include new tile floor, additional new water closet, new sink area, redo walls, 
turn shower area into storage area, repaint walls & lockers, new ceiling tile and grid. Most 
labor to be provided by club members and hire only what we can’t do ourselves.
