Don't give up on Brittany

Bella Vista, "A Mecca for Golf in the Midwest," needs to have a full complement of courses to play to accommodate all ages and skill levels. We have this wonderfully developed asset -- the Brittany Cours -- that does not flood and needs to be better promoted and offered at a reasonable price to average golfers and youth(first tee).

Consider the following promotional suggestions:

Pricing 9-holes with cart/person

• $16 all and anyone

• $12 with photo ID

• $40 foursome with at least one photo ID

• $600 annual pass -- unlimited play with photo ID

• $11 all walkers

Provide optional forward tee boxes on No. 2, No. 5, No 7, and No. 8 making Brittany a complete Par 3 course to better accommodate older golfers and youth (first tee).

Early-Bird special (weekdays before 10 a.m.) free coffee and donut at the clubhouse

Work with youth programs (first tee) to help promote Brittany as a viable resource to enhance the golf experience for our future golfers.

I encourage all members to attend the meeting on May 14 to discuss this issue regarding our Brittany Golf Course.
