Marty, you are essentially reporting what I said initially. At one time the board, by resolution, made the Golf Governors the golf advisory committee. Then around 2007 Dave Stevens shook that up and added a couple of non-governors. Then Rakow set about rewriting all the resolutions. These had a golf committee, approved in 2009. Then the board essentially did away (declared inactive or whatever) with the committee altogether about the time Casper arrived.

We are now back to a totally independent golf group outside of any advisory guidelines, our By-Law, or board control. I'll bet this is just how the golfers like it.

What is this golf group? At any rate, any group of individuals in the Pines can form any group they please and lobby the board for anything. No violation of anything.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
Joe:

We both might be right. I have tracked down a very old, I believe prior to 2007, policy resolution 1-97-31, Golf Advisory Committee. In this document the the initial members of the advisory committee was made up of the existing Golf Board of Governors. The first new resolution C-11 was passed in 2009 and established an advisory with members appointed by the board President with consent of the board and in compliance with our By-Laws. This resolution was further modified in 2010. Finally around November of 2010 the committee and it's nine members were declared inactive on a motion by Pete Gomsak. We are now back to a totally independent golf group outside of any advisory guidelines, our By-Law, or board control. I'll bet this is just how the golfers like it.

There you have it.

Marty
