Because of Omaha's new budget plan and new golf tax, we were left having to pay "extra money" for our league golfers the remaining 2-3 weeks of league play ($380 extra to be exact).

Which means I didn't budget for any price changes. I know what you are thinking; Since we have a contract for 16 weeks of play, we were "locked in" for at the old price ... wrong. Our contract only stated the number of weeks we'll play, the time slots we reserved and the number of golfers playing.

So to recoup our loss, the "sub rate" went up $1 at Spring Lake GC, Shoreline GC & LaVista Falls GC and $3 at Elmwood GC.

Plus, it looks like we will be charging a dollar or two at the golf banquet for the regular league golfers and $20 per person for guests and subs. Sorry.
