Board of Directors Meeting
July 18, 2018
The meeting was called to order by President Tom Class at 12:44 p.m. Members present were President Tom Class, Vice President and Tournament Chairman Bryan Cope, Secretary Mike Dyekman, Treasurer Will Nelson, Travel Team Captain Larry Thompson, Greens Chairman Jim Santospirito, Senior Men’s Club Director Bob Schulken and Rules Chairman Ken Smith. Additional club members present were Dave Yaple, Bill Wicovitch, Phil Young and Kel Scott.
Reports:
Treasurer: The Treasurer presented the 2018 financial report as of July 17, 2018. Motion to accept the report by Jim Santospirito; seconded by Bob Schulken. Motion carried.
Tournament Chairman: The poor condition of the course is affecting play. There was a general discussion of several options to adopt to improve scoring, i.e. using winter rules or adopting a local rule. Motion by Ken Smith, seconded by Santospirito to play the ball within the “rules of golf”. Motion carried. Motion by Ken Smith, second by Larry Thompson that the first group to tee off each Wednesday take cans of spray paint and mark Ground Under Repair. The club will pay for the paint. Motion carried.
Handicap Chairman: No Report. Handicap sheets will be delivered by Mrs. Service as handicaps are revised.
Greens Chairman: The greens are not looking good. Maintenance is falling behind.
Travel Team Chairman: The travel team is currently in second place, 2 points behind Pala Mesa.
Senior Chairman: Play continues on Monday mornings with 11 to 17 players.
Special Events and Social Chairman: No report.
Rules Chairman: The chairman addressed the Board regarding Abnormal Ground Condition (Rule 25-1). This is a response to concerns received about the condition of the course. Specifically, the 17th green has an area on it that is marked as GUR. If this area interferes with a player’s stance or area of intended swing or if the ball is in or touching the area, relief may be taken. The player must lift and drop the ball within one club length of the nearest point of relief which is no nearer the hole and not on the green.
Regarding fallen trees:
A fallen tree which is in the process of removal is defined as GUR even if not so marked because it fits with in the definition of GUR (material piled for removal). If the tree is still attached to its stump or roots, and/or not marked as GUR nor in the process of removal, free relief is not allowed. Free relief for tree stumps is not provided unless they are marked as GUR or are in the process of removal.
A player is granted free relief from animal holes, mounds or trenches whether of not it is marked. Relief is one club length of the nearest point of relief which is no nearer the hole.
New Business:
A concern was expressed regarding tee sheets, especially on Wednesdays. They appear to be constantly changing with several people making the changes. Some of this due to people signing up other people and by others just not showing up. The board would like to follow the lead of the Seniors. It is imperative that anyone who wishes to play, but is not on the tee sheet, notify the Tournament Chairman prior to Wednesday morning. Conversely anyone who is on the tee sheet, but cannot play, is also to notify the tournament chairman. The only person authorized to change a tee sheet on Monday or Wednesday morning is the Senior or Tournament chairman. This can be done via text message or e-mail.
There was also a brief discussion about being better “stewards” of the course. We should do our best not to deteriorate the condition of the course. Antonio also provided some insight into the challenges of course maintenance. The high cost of water being one issue and procurement of parts and chemicals also being a contributor. The next priorities on the course are repair and/or replacement of the restrooms.
There being no other business, Jim Santospirito moved to adjourn the meeting, second by Bryan Cope. Motion carried.
Respectfully submitted,
Mike Dyekman
Secretary

Minutes of Castle Creek Men’s Club Board of Directors Meeting
The meeting was called to order by President Tom Class at 1155. Members present were President Tom Class, Vice President and Tournament Chairman Greg Pallastrini, Secretary Duke Dukleth, Treasurer Will Nelson, Rules Chairman Ken Smith, Travel Team Captain Larry Thompson, SCGA Representative and Handicap Chairman Charles Service, Greens Chairman Jim Santospirito, Events Chairman and Dave Webster.
-
Tournament Chairman Greg Pallastrini gave a negative report.
-
Greens Chairman Jim Santospirito reported the greens are starting to get rougher and need more attention.
-
Travel Team Captain Larry Thompson reported that the Travel Team is three points out of third place overall in this year’s standings.
-
Special Events Chairman Dave Webster gave a negative report.
-
The Financial Report (attachment 1) was presented by Treasurer Will Nelson. Treasurer Will Nelson introduced the idea of an increase in annual dues. Members will pay their SCGA Membership dues directly to the SCGA this coming year and into the future. The question is how this will affect our membership since we have some members that are inactive for the most part. Question and issue was tabled until our next meeting in September when we have a clearer idea of how SCGA will handle our membership and to inform members of an impending increase in our Castle Creek Men’s Club Annual dues. A motion was made, seconded and carried to accept the Financial Report.
-
Tournament Chairman Greg Pallastrini stated he will commence signups the week of July 12th for our Annual Match Play Tournament. $20 will be the fee.
-
Rules Chair Ken Smith gave a negative report.
-
Larry Thompson introduced the way some other clubs are handling poor conditions in bunkers. Players when landing in a bunker are allowed to pick up their ball, rake the area where his ball came to rest to smooth out the bunker surface, remove rocks, and then replace the ball. This is to allow a playable surface out of which to hit. A motion was made and seconded to adopt a similar rule for Castle Creek Men’s Club. The motion did not pass.
-
Larry Thompson made a motion establish a drop zone on Hole #14 for a uniform place at the Green Tee area to be used as a drop zone for those who hit into the hazard running diagonally across the fairway along the creek bed. Ken Smith provided the wording for the rule as follows:
The USGA recommends that a local rule establishing a Dropping Zone be an additional option to Rule 26-1 Water Hazards, but they allow for a local committee to adopt a local rule that REQUIRES the dropping zone be used in all circumstances.
I think since the relief provisions under 26-1 are already multiple and adding one more option would just be more confusing, we should probably adopt the following recommended wording for our local rule:
"If a ball is in or it is known or virtually certain that a ball that has not been found is in the diagonal water hazard along the creek bed on hole #14, the player MUST, drop a ball, under penalty of one stroke, in the dropping zone."
If a player drops his ball under this local rule (using the dropping zone) and then hits his third shot in the lateral water hazard again, he would then follow rule 26-1 for that subsequent shot.
If there are no objections, I will put a notice and sample on our bulletin board, the desk, the entry door and inform our members of the new local rule and the date it will become operative.
Note that the wording of the proposed new local rule requires the player to take a drop in the dropping zone - he MUST follow that procedure or be assessed an additional two stroke penalty.
The motion carried.
-
Handicap Chairman Charles Service brought up problems with the way members post their scores. After a discussion a motion was made and seconded to require all members to post all rounds immediately upon completion of the round on the computer in the Men’s Club Room and not post from home or their Smart Phones. The motion passed. A second motion was made by Handicap Chairman Charles Service to allow him to post penalty scores in accordance with the USGA Handicap System Handbook. The motion passed and is effective as of this date. .
-
President Tom Class stated that all changes or additions to our local rules or bylaws will be included in the next edition of our Castle Creek Men’s Club Handbook.
-
A motion was made and seconded to allow women to play in Men’s Club events. Due to the complexity of different handicap rules for men and women and the idea that our Women do not contribute to the treasury where some prize money is derived we will allow women to compete for “Closest to the Pin” money only. The motion carried.
-
A motion was made, seconded and carried to adjourn.

2017 Castle Creek Various Club Info
Offerings
Creation of a “Legacy” category in which anybody that has an existing reoccurring membership will receive $10 off their monthly membership. This is available only to members in good standing and who pay a reoccurring charge every month.
Anybody who is a member of the Mens or Ladies club will receive 20% off of soft goods in the Pro Shop and 10% off of hard goods, this cannot be combined with any other discounts.
On the days the individual plays and organized Mens or Ladies Club event (Sr Mens Club, Mens Club, Bandits, Couples or Ladies Club) they will receive 25% off of their food (alcohol excluded) order in the restaurant.
We will give canned beer at a lower rate for the Members of any Club also on the days that they play a affiliated event, this offer is available to any member of a club and only available through the Pro Shop and on the days that they play. (Will change or eliminate if a legal problem occurs)
Those that play with the member clubs that do not hold a reoccurring monthly membership are paying a discounted rate off what the rate was supposed to be, therefore at this time we will keep those rates the same and will have no change in that rate ($25) when playing in those clubs.
In addition, if any member brings another new member; we will give the member that brought them in a free month after the new member they brought in has been here 6 months and is in good standing. This is only available if the sign up is for a reoccurring monthly membership. Also, If anybody who plays with a member club and does not have a reoccurring monthly membership (social member) wants to get a reoccurring monthly membership, we will honor the $10 off monthly rate as long as they sign up before the end of 2017. These new memberships must be someone who currently holds some form of membership with Castle Creek or had one within the last 5 years. Anybody who is just coming in will get the club discounts but must pay the applicable monthly rate for their membership.
Improvements
Have dug a new well in which roughly 150 -175 gallons a minute are obtained off the #3 bridge. Two new pumps added to the pump house off #3 /#7 in which we will be able to distribute the water better and more efficiently throughout the course
Over seeded with rye grass several months ago, to increase the overall appearance of the course.
Sprayed the fairways with iron and nitrogen to increase growth and change color to obtain a more defined rough and fairway definition. We will continue this process moving forward in the future.
Decreased the size of our aeration to ¼” to promote a shorter recovery time (1 week compared to 3 weeks) and save on sand so that we may distribute that out to several bunkers to increase their consistency (will be raking bunkers aggressively this next week, weather cooperating, to see where the overall compaction and fluff is) Once we have an understanding we will distribute what is available to the bunkers that need it most.
Currently adding accounts to start bringing in more product into the pro shop.
