Great Decision on the Golf Course

The commissioners made an important decision on the golf course. I am not a golfer, but Snyder needs all the lifestyle attractions it can get if we are going to keep businesses here and bring in new ones.

When businesses look to locate , they examine very closely the quality of the schools and what "there is to do" in the town.

Many people find a small town attractive if they don’t have to sacrifice too many of the activities available in the city.

Thus, we need to continue to develop our park, our schools, our coliseum, our golf courses, etc.

The great thing about the Scurry County golf course is that it comes with an endowment of several hundred thousand dollars.

With proper management we should not only have a beautiful course but be able to keep it running for years to come with no expense to the county.

It will be a real asset to the community.

This deal was a no brainer.

No Brainer is an understatement. Excellent example of local politics. The commissoners court doesn't have a clue about what they have gotten into or what to do with it. They were simply bought off with a nice endowment.

The county needs to keep Rick Mammolite in the Pro Shop with the same arrangement as he now has. Because of the number of hours he is there, he could not be replaced by even a minimum wage employee for the same money.
