GENERAL MEMBERS MEETING AT THE NORTHERN QUEST CASINO

Presentation of minutes:  Mel Hamilton reviewed minutes from the March 31, 2006 board meeting held at The Creek at

Qualchan golf course and minutes from the August 25, 2006 board meeting at Twin Lakes .  He said that

by approving the two sets of minutes the bylaws of the association will be revised and handicapping will be effected. 

The first change was the dropping of the 75-30 age/handicap rule where a member who is 75 years old and has a

handicap  of 30 or greater is permitted to play from forward tees.  The board passed a motion to eliminate this

non USGA practice.

seconded and the motion, following discussion passed with Director Hopkins voting nay.
