Hidden Valley Country Club

Following the first day of play of the NSWGA Partners Tournament, our President, Karen Hoppe, called the meeting to order at 2:25 PM. Absent were Jeanne Hudgins and Irene Frank.

D'Anne Daniels presented the Treasurer's report. (copy attached) She summarized and clarified several items.

In a discussion regarding the Quad Standing Rules, it was noted that section V., A. & B. "Perpetual trophy....." be eliminated. There are no perpetual trophies for this event.

Lori Elliott spoke about progress in the upcoming tournaments. Response has not been what she had hoped for and feels she needs to get flyers out and asked for volunteers to help her. Nancy McDermid will ask Jackie Schimmel to help create a colorful flyer. Others suggested that flyers be placed on the carts for tomorrow's play, and it will be done.

President Karen asked Nancy about general circulation of our "Players Handbook." Nancy reviewed her progress. The members of the board made general observations and discussion followed. Karen expressed that since we go to the expense of printing the book, we should be sure that it is circulated properly. Mailing the book to the separate clubs would be an answer. Karen further suggested that we put money in the budget for next year for such mailing.

Laurie Johnson reported that we have thirteen entries to the Quad, to date. We will play the Desert Course at Primm Valley each day.

Doe Emes(future sites-South) related that we can have our state tournament at Spanish Trail in a very good deal of $50 daily, green fees and cart. She will secure August 29,30,31, 2005.

Also, the State Partners Tournament can be held at Dragon Ridge for the same cost. The practice round will be Sunday, June 5, ($75) and play on June 6 and 7, 2005.

Claudia Chesney (future sites-North) had secured Plumas Pines ($45 and $5 back in a gift certificate) for August 8 & 9 for the Quad, but Mindy pointed out that that date is in conflict with NNWGA Championship at Ruby View. Claudia will work on another date.

Also, Claudia will secure a site for the Silver Cup matches.

Doe presented her report on liability insurance for the board. Her investigation was thorough and she was able to report to us fully. She did find a company with adequate coverage for us which would cost approximately $300. Lori Elliott moved to take such insurance and Janet seconded. The motion carried.

As there was no further business, Karen closed the meeting at 3:25 PM.

-Berta Kirchner, Secretary.
