Treasury Report

Robert Shaw provided the following updates:

  • Cash in the bank as of April 30, 2023 is $5,767.68
  • LWMGA has three invoices to be paid upon board approval totaling $2,508.08.  LWMGA board approved paying all three invoices
  • For the tournament holdback portion ($5 per player), ClubCorp would prefer that the LWMGA be credited with that amount rather than maintaining a balance with ClubCorp.  Robert will create a Savings Account linked to the LWMGA Checking account to hold the holdback balance from each tournament.  Board unanimously approved this approach.
