Committee Reports:
Greens Committee – Sodding has been taken place on Marsh Hawk 4 and 9. 
 
The green’s present grass condition is not expected to improve as the new grass growing season is about over until fall.  Some top dressing and green rolling will continue as conditions permit.
 
The 2012 maintenance budget and possible new capital improvements were discussed.  The CCMA committee will discuss future capital improvements with Affiniti that may be considered in the future or if money becomes available in the 2012 approved maintenance budget.
 
Handicap/Rules – The rules clinic is scheduled for April 30 using Blackheath 1 & 18.  90 have signed up to date with a soft limit being held at 110.  Event registration will be on the patio at 3 pm.
 
Social Committee – The sign up process for events is slowly improving but some issues remain.  The sign up process is important as floor space and event planning can be troublesome without proper counts.
 
Casino Night has been postponed as the sign up was not going to make the minimum required.  The committee will try the schedule this event again in the winter.  They believe more information regarding what was included in the cost, information regarding a beginner’s lesson, and maybe a more casual event will improve sign up.
 
The June 15 event will be the “British Invasion”.
 
Carmen is launching a ladies lunch activity.  The first event will be based on home decorating (April) and the second (May) is expected to be base on personal finance.
 
House Committee – The March meeting was postponed.  Craig has indicated he will attend the next meeting.
 
LGA 18 – Opening day was with the LGA 9 group and was a success.
 
LGA 9 – The first breakfast/golf event was attended by 80 ladies.  The breakfast cost will be a key element for future events.  Craig offered to intercede if the cost seems to be too high.
 
A golf/lunch event is being scheduled which will require individual signup.
 
MGA –Monthly Medal play starts April 18.  The MGA has been informed that on April 27 the course will be closed and other arrangements are being reviewed.
 
Associate with Golf – Milt was absent.  Craig played in the Associate with Golf event in March.  35 to 40 people played golf followed by dinner.
 
Open Discussion – Bob Shambora has accepted the Nominating Committee chair for the next general election.
 
The new FCCC cart policy and its communication to members were discussed.  The discussion was based on how in the future the CCMA may suggest future communication for similar policy changes.
 
The next meeting is scheduled for May 14 at 4pm.
