Where did it start - Clubhouse Minimums?

[Will MacEwen]

My two observations on minimums:

1.  Most members like the fact that they know the facilities will be open as per the posted hours, regardless of traffic.  Being open on a Tuesday night until 9 with one or two members eating isn't rational, until you are one of those members. 

2.  Other people's minimums are great - we all love it when someone says "help me use up my minimum".

Hee's a shout out to one of our own who "does it correctly" - Scott Dunn (and his small group) @ Twisted Dune (my good friend Archie Struthers knows Scott well).  Off peak, the TD team, takes in the greens fees, serves snack, beverages &  lunch (huge hot dogs) from the small shop.  Very efficient use of labor.  A few nice days in the Novemeber-mid-March time frame really help off season cash flow.
