|
| | | | | | | | OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this memorandum is to request approval for the use of Willowick Golf Course for the 12th Annual Golf Classic, jointly sponsored by the Garden Grove Community Foundation and Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce. |
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
For the past eleven years, the Garden Grove Community Foundation (GGCF) and the Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce (Commerce) have partnered to plan and coordinate a golf tournament fundraiser known as the GGCF/Chamber of Commerce Golf Classic. This event is one of the largest and most significant Fundraisers for both organizations. Funds raised help support GGCF annual events and also assist the Chamber in promoting the Garden Grove business community and providing resources for tourists who visit Garden Grove. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
Willowick is contractually obligated to grant free use of the golf course to a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization once a year. Traditionally, the City Council has granted joint use of the course to the GGCF and Garden Grove Chamber and both organizations are asking that the City Council once again approve their request. The golf tournament is scheduled for Wednesday, May 4, 2016. |
| | | | | | | | RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:
- Approve the use of Willowick Golf Course on Wednesday, May 4, 2016, for the 12th annual GGCF/Chamber Golf Classic.
