The new AED system will mirror the one used by the local fire department and will be maintained under the same service plan. A training session, potentially set for early next year, will be conducted by the fire department for the golf course staff. This training, expected to last approximately three hours, will cover both AED use and CPR, although the cost and specific details remain to be finalized. The discussion also touched on whether CPR certification should be a hiring requirement, with the suggestion that it be strongly encouraged.

Financial updates revealed that the golf course has generated around $560,000 in revenue, representing 55% of its budget, with expenses totaling $363,000. This leaves a surplus of approximately $227,000, even after indirect costs. The unseasonably warm and dry fall contributed to higher revenue, as the course remained busy through October.

The commission also addressed maintenance tasks, including final sprays and preparations for winter, and discussed upcoming projects such as replacing golf pins and flags. Additionally, plans for next year’s golf events are underway, with the Holy Family Academy tournament likely moving to June for better weather. A discussion on membership rates and potential caps is slated for the next meeting.
