B. Finance Mr. Franklin Total F&B revenue is down about 8% from both budget and last year thru the eight-month period ended May 31, Golf revenue for the month of May was down due to weather. On a ytd basis, Loss from Operations is $9,700, which is $15,500 better than budget. Revenue misses in F&B and Dues are more than offset by lower overall expenses.

Mr. Minnaugh asked that a meeting be scheduled before the next Board meeting to brainstorm ideas on both of these topics. He also asked that members of the Membership Committee be invited to participate. C. Golf Mr. Wickett Mr. Wickett discussed the member-for-a-day certificate idea.
