RE:	Recommended increases for Green/Cart Fees at Eagle Bend Golf Course and Learning Center

In reviewing rates charged at Eagle Bend Golf Course and Learning Center, we recommend increasing cart fees and weekend (Fri, Sat., Sun. and holidays) green fees. Fees would be as follows:

Walking rates	Current	Recommended Increases
18-hole weekend	$23.00	$25.00
18-hole weekday	$20.00	$20.00
9-hole weekend	$15.00	$17.00
9-hole weekday	$13.00	$13.00

Cart fees (per seat)
18-holes	$15.00	$16.00
9-holes	$ 10.00	$ 11.00

With the increase, Eagle Bend’s weekend rates continue to be very competitive with area courses.
