CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL The July 25, 2025 meeting of the Recreation Commission was called to order at 7:00 a.m. at the Village Links of Glen Ellyn; 485 Winchell Way; Glen Ellyn, Illinois by Chairperson Scott. B. PUBLIC COMMENT – None C. APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM June 27, 2025 APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM June 27, 2025 MEETING MOTION BY: Commissioner Quoss SECONDED BY: Commissioner Coldiron RESULT: Unanimous Recreation 2 July 25, 2025 D. STANDING REPORTS 1. Financial – Andrew Cross – Superintendent Cross reported that June was another strong month, generating over $1 million in total revenue. Golf rounds were up 1%, green fees increased by 5%, driving range activity rose 7%, and pro shop sales also saw gains. These contributed to a 4% increase in overall golf revenues for the month and a 1% increase year-to-date. Restaurant revenues remained flat. Cash reserves are slightly down from last year due to capital equipment purchases, though most major expenditures have been completed. Golf cart rentals were down due to rain. 2. Manager’s Report A. Golf – Mike Campbell – Director Campbell provided an update, noting there was one fewer golf outing this year compared to last, yet rounds were still up by 84. Commissioner Quoss asked how payments are accounted for when customers pay upfront for the year. Campbell explained these are recorded as deferred play. Trustee Thompson asked whether the course is maxing out golf outings and where most outings stand in terms of participation. Campbell responded that most outings operate at about 60% capacity, with the average outing consisting of approximately 80 players. He added that scheduling buffers are built in to ensure regular golfers can still be accommodated. B. Reserve 22 – Jon Satinover – Satinover provided several updates, noting the restaurant is performing well overall. Although June revenues were slightly lower, cost management remains strong. Salaries are down by over $12,000 due to staffing adjustments. Currently, we are $10,000 behind last year’s profit. A recently hired sous chef did not work out, but a new candidate has accepted an offer and is expected to join the team soon. The carryout Order-and-Go program is gaining traction, aided by a 20% promotional offer. Additionally, 13 new TVs have been installed in the main dining area, including a 65” TV mounted on the stone wall. C. Grounds – Andrew Cross - Superintendent Cross shared several updates. The golf course is in good condition, and yesterday’s Illinois Open Qualifier was a success, with positive feedback despite a three-hour rain delay. While recent storms caused some bunker washouts, conditions have improved overall. Tree trimming efforts, primarily crown raising, have enhanced sightlines across the course. In June, a few minor irrigation leaks were addressed; the system is now 20 years old. Crews also sodded areas of the fairways, replacing soil with a sand/soil mix to improve drainage. 3. Trustee Liaison – Steve Thompson – Trustee Thompson provided several updates, noting that the Village Board voted Monday night on the Glenbard District 89/Glenbard West proposal, which generated significant controversy. The next steps are now in the hands of the school district. A vote on the Glenwood Crescent lot is scheduled for this coming Monday. The Event Park project, led by the Park District, will launch a capital campaign to address an $800,000 funding gap, with demolition and grading expected to begin in August. A ribbon cutting was recently held for the Glenwood Station apartments, which are currently 70% leased, with full occupancy anticipated by August. Recreation 3 July 25, 2025 Additionally, a new meat market is opening at Five Corners, and a coffee shop will be opening soon in Glenwood Station. E. OLD BUSINESS 1. Pace of Play Data – Mike Campbell - Campbell reported that the average round time for the 18-hole course this year is 4 hours and 7 minutes. He noted the team is pleased with this pace of play. 2. Beverage Cart Weekend Starting Times – Mike Campbell - Campbell shared that beverage cart service now begins one hour earlier on weekends, with three carts currently in operation. In response to Trustee Thompson’s inquiry, he noted that the cost of the carts was $21,000. 3. Master Plan Update – Andrew Cross - Cross mentioned that Noel Allen and Mark Franz met with Ed Stevens to discuss the logistics of the Master Plan. F. NEW BUSINESS – None G. NEXT MEETING - August 22, 2025 H. ADJOURNMENT Commissioner Carter motioned and Commissioner Coldiron seconded to adjourn the meeting. The meeting was adjourned at 7:52 a.m. Submitted by Elisa Pollina, Recording Secretary Reviewed by Noel Allen, Staff Liaison

CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL The June 27, 2025 meeting of the Recreation Commission was called to order at 7:01 a.m. at the Village Links of Glen Ellyn; 485 Winchell Way; Glen Ellyn, Illinois by Chairperson Scott. B. PUBLIC COMMENT – Tom Manak, a Glen Ellyn resident and frequent golfer at Village Links, shared concerns regarding the pace of play. He noted that he typically plays between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m. on weekdays and Saturdays, and recently, the pace has been excessively slow—often taking between 4 hours and 20 minutes to 4 hours and 30 Page 2 of 26 Recreation 2 June 27, 2025 minutes. He observed that during backups, such as at Hole 14, Holes 15 and 16 are often empty, and he rarely sees a course ranger addressing the issue. In response, Noel acknowledged the concern and stated that the team would review pace-of-play data. He added that rangers are not driving around on carts, they are generally dispatched when an issue is reported or identified, so they may not be visible unless they are actively managing a problem on the course. C. APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM May 30, 2025 APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM MAY 30, 2025 MEETING as amended MOTION BY: Commissioner Slowinski SECONDED BY: Commissioner Ozog RESULT: Unanimous D. STANDING REPORTS 1. Financial – Noel Allen – Manager Allen provided a financial overview for the month of May. Revenues were up 3%, driven by increases in green fees and driving range fees, while the total number of rounds played remained flat. Operating expenses rose by 8%, with administrative expenses up 10%. Grounds expenses were down by $23,000, while golf services expenses increased by $28,000 due to the purchase of range balls and junior golf kits. Reserve 22 expenses were up $12,000, primarily due to increased labor costs and cost of goods. The Village made the first annual payment to the Park District, totaling $30,000, for the maintenance of Panfish Park. Year-to-date revenues are now flat year-to-date, which is positive considering the golf season began 17 days later than last year. Most capital expenditures for the year have been executed. A replacement HVAC system for Reserve 22 is currently being installed following a failure, with installation scheduled for Wednesday. In addition, IT upgrades are scheduled to replace wireless access points and install new security cameras—improvements expected to significantly enhance system performance. A $100,000 commitment to the Park District’s Master Plan at Panfish Park also remains and is expected to be paid this year. Overall, the Village Links is in a stronger financial position this month, adding $180,000 to reserves in May compared to $175,000 the previous year. In response to a question from Chairperson Scott about payments to the Park District and employees for stormwater related responsibilities, Noel clarified that the $30,000 payment is for mowing and general maintenance, while the $100,000 is a one-time contribution for overall park improvements. Andrew added that if any issues are observed in the park, they should be reported so staff can follow up with the Park District. He also noted ongoing collaboration with the Park District on trail improvement Page 3 of 26 Recreation 3 June 27, 2025 projects. 2. Manager’s Report A. Golf – Mike Campbell – Director Campbell provided an update on golf operations. The team recently held a VIP membership sales contest among staff, resulting in 68 new VIP members—an increase over last year. So far this season, eight golf outings have been held, most of them in May and one in April. The Spring Scramble event saw lower participation compared to last year, largely due to inclement weather. However, it's worth noting that even in less-than-ideal conditions, players still showed up to play. The Pro Shop has shown positive growth, with sales up $8,000 compared to the same time last year. Merchandise mostly includes shirts, shoes, and balls. Staffing is now complete and the team is fully geared up for the season. Members of the Recreation Commission suggested introducing a senior scramble event, noting that it can be challenging for older players to compete with younger participants. Director Campbell acknowledged the feedback and said it would be taken into consideration for next year’s planning. Chairperson Scott added that other courses, such as Glen Oak, offer senior women’s tees, and emphasized that senior women face similar challenges as senior men when competing against younger players. She also noted that many tees have been rated by the handicap association. Manager Allen responded that while this idea has been suggested before, it has not yet been widely adopted at other courses. Commissioner Ozog adds, the beverage cart staff is not the same as last year, and often times does not see the beverage cart until Hole #18. Manager Allen adds he will look into that. B. Reserve 22 – Jon Satinover – Satinover provided several updates. Unfortunately, our new Sous Chef candidate worked only one day and did not return. An offer was made to another highly qualified candidate, and we are awaiting his response. We are continuing to explore options and are in active discussions with the Chef, who is managing well despite the staffing gap. We remain hopeful this position will be filled soon. Mother’s Day was a success, with 322 guests attending. The recent restaurant refresh has also received positive reviews. We held our first banquet team brainstorming meeting in May, with a second meeting just completed. These meetings will continue monthly moving forward. Banquet bookings remain strong through May but may be softening for the year. The restaurant is also showing early signs of softening. While we’re not making immediate changes, we are closely monitoring the situation. Last month’s poor weather impacted business, and June is shaping up to be a lighter month as well. In response, we are slowing spending for the next few weeks and will reassess after that. Contractual service expenses are currently up $11,000 over last year. Page 4 of 26 Recreation 4 June 27, 2025 Our Order & Go program, which allows golfers to order ahead for pickup post-round, has seen limited usage to date. Startup costs for the program were $1,800. We are also reviewing a $9,000 charge for workers' compensation and will investigate further. To address slower sales, we’re considering various promotional strategies, particularly focusing on liquor discounts, which have been effective in the past. We avoid offering food discounts, as high volumes may impact the kitchen’s ability to deliver quality. If the patio is full, there’s no need for promotions, but if traffic slows, we’re prepared to launch promotions. We are considering offering a Happy Hour from 4:00–6:00 PM. The RC responded positively to the idea, noting there's no better outdoor spot in town. Finally, Trevor is working on a quote to replace the indoor TVs, estimated around $5,000. We would plan to self-install before fall. C. Grounds – Andrew Cross - Cross provided several updates, noting that May is typically a very active month for the Grounds team as plant growth accelerates. This May plant growth was slower than normal due to the cooler weather. Despite this, progress continued in other areas. Drinking fountains were installed, and seasonal flowers were planted throughout the course. A major milestone was reached at the end of May with the completion of the bunker project. Over the past year and a half, 3,000 tons of sand has been added to the bunkers. Encouragingly, following the recent heavy rainfall, the newly completed bunkers showed no signs of washouts. Commissioner Coldiron inquired about the status of the Tagmarshal. Allen responded that the system is still experiencing issues, particularly following the rollout of their 4.0 software update. While there has been some progress, the system is not yet functioning as expected. A meeting is scheduled with Tagmarshal on July 2 to address the ongoing concerns. Allen noted that last year, a refund was received due to the persistent issues, but emphasized that the goal this time is simply to get the system working properly. If the problems cannot be resolved, the next step would be to explore an exit from the four-year contract. However, because Tagmarshal operates as a leasing company, terminating the agreement could be challenging. Nonetheless, Allen remains hopeful that the outstanding issues can be resolved in the near future. Allen asked the RC to report any issues they encounter with the carts, including the specific cart number, so that staff can investigate and address the problem. Cross added that the team explored options for displaying American flags for the Fourth of July weekend and other patriotic holidays and worked with their vendor to create a custom flag design. These flags will be displayed from July 3 through July 6. The team is also considering ordering additional flags to offer for sale. 3. Trustee Liaison – Steve Thompson – No report Page 5 of 26 Recreation 5 June 27, 2025 E. OLD BUSINESS – MASTER PLAN UPDATE – Manager Allen reported that there are no significant updates at this time. The project remains in a holding phase where one of three key financial steps must occur before moving forward: the retirement or near- retirement of existing debt, the accumulation of additional savings to reduce borrowing, and decisions on what elements to prioritize within the estimated $14 million scope of the project. Allen emphasized that, because the facility does not receive tax support, all funding must come from golf course revenue. He noted that he and Andrew will be visiting Orchard Valley to review work being done by architect Greg Martin, and will also visit Cantigny to observe their progress. Commissioner Ozog asked why the financial model isn’t expected to change. Allen responded that there are currently no indications from the Village that any changes are under consideration, nor is he seeking any at this time. He added that there is approximately $2 million in cash reserves, and his goal is to contribute an additional $300,000 to $500,000 annually to further strengthen that reserve. F. NEW BUSINESS – Manager Allen shared that the golf cart models under consideration are available outside for the Recreation Commission to view and test. He emphasized that no decisions will be made today. The purpose of this preview is to allow commissioners to evaluate the three vendors’ carts—focusing on factors such as interior space, seat comfort, and overall driving experience. Two of the carts are gas-powered, and Allen encouraged commissioners to keep that in mind while driving them. He noted that the E-Z-GO cart is expected to feel and sound similar to the Club Car model currently in use. He also asked commissioners not to judge the carts solely on the seat comfort, as upgraded seating options are available. Instead, he urged them to consider the cart's drivability, interior space, and functionality in everyday use. Allen mentioned that a quote has been received from Yamaha for upgraded seats; while the upfront cost is higher, the trade-in value is expected to be more favorable. He welcomed feedback at any time and noted that a formal proposal will be brought to the RC at the August meeting. The goal is to present a recommendation to the Village Board in time for cart orders to be placed by September. G. NEXT MEETING - July 25, 2025 H.

Manager's Report - June 2025 Page 15 of 26 22 “Committed to Excellence since 1967” Manager’s Report for JUNE 2025 Submitted by Noel Allen, General Manager June 2025 had well-above normal temperatures and near-normal precipitation. Looking at June observations from O’Hare, the average temperature was 74.2°F (3.6°F above normal), which is tied for the 6th warmest June on record, and precipitation was 3.63” (0.47” below normal). June was again a fantastic month for golf revenue as carts were available 29 of 30 days (97% availability) on both courses. GOLF Rounds played were up 1% for the month, and are down 5% for the year. Green Fee revenue was up 5% for the month, and is up 1% for the year. Driving Range revenue was up 7% for the month, and is flat for the year. Motor Car revenue was down 1% for the month, and is down 1% for the year. Pro Shop sales were up 3% for the month, and are up 3% for the year. Overall Golf revenues were up 4% for the month, and are up 1% for the year. Page 16 of 26 Golf revenues for the month exceeded 2025 targets in all categories and were up over last June in all categories except carts. Year-to-date golf revenues are still exceeding all 2025 targets and, despite year- to-date rounds played being down 5%, are now ahead of last year driven by increased prices in green fees and driving range. The weather as measured by golf playable hours this June was 7% below a normal year, but 7% ahead of last year. With rounds played up only 1% but again ranking 2nd highest in the last 20 years, participation appears to remain strong, even with golf course utilization dropping 6%. Golf course utilization of our facility has been very high for the past several seasons which lessens the impact of better weather producing increased rounds. Poorer weather, unfortunately, still has the potential to significantly impact rounds negatively. Carts and rounds were affected due to weather three times this month compared to four days last June. Our annual Have One On Us customer appreciation event was held on June 6 & 7 with 489 golfers participating in the drive, chip and putt contest, 18-hole, 9-hole, and junior golf tournaments. Numerous others also took advantage of free driving range and $2 drafts, hot dogs, brats, and burgers on Friday evening and all-day Saturday. The Village Links Amateur began and runs until early July as players in multiple flights schedule and play their match play events. Our annual parent junior golf tournament was also held with 11 teams competing for the title. We also hosted an Illinois Junior Golf Association developmental tournament to further invest in our future golfers. Golf staff also executed nine shot gun start golf outings in June, one less than in 2024. The Drive, Chip and Putt contest Guests could eat their was held on Friday evening. $2 burgers, brats or hot dogs in the banquet room this year. Page 17 of 26 RESERVE 22 Total revenues were down again this month at Reserve 22. While restaurant, bar, and concessions revenue increased by 2%, banquets and outings declined by 19%. Despite this recent downturn, year-to- date banquet revenues remain positive, though indicators suggest softening in this segment. In June 2025, we hosted 35 events across all spaces – a decrease of four events compared to June 2024. Our banquet sales team met in June for the 2nd time and is actively developing strategies to increase leads and bookings. A referral program will launch in early July, along with targeted efforts to attract more corporate events and celebrations of life. Hot, humid conditions curbed patio sales the last two weeks in June and affected banquet revenue and customer satisfaction, as our HVAC system in the north banquet room failed. Temporary AC units were brought in to help until the roof top unit could be replaced in early July. Unfortunately, the guest experience suffered as indoor temperatures remained warmer than normal, and the rooms were not as attractive. Reserve 22 hired a new full-time Sous Chef who had a family emergency and worked only one day before ending his employment. We have reached out to another very qualified candidate whom we interviewed, and he has accepted our offer. We hope to have a full-time Sous Chef on staff by mid-July. Finally, our new carryout program, launched in June, has not yet gained traction. We plan to expand promotion beyond the golf audience and will allow additional time to evaluate the program’s viability. One of two temporary AC units brought in to help cool the Blue Heron Room due to failure of our HVAC RTU. Page 18 of 26 KEY METRICS Golf rounds and revenues continue to track well, with all categories currently exceeding their target numbers, while Food & Beverage revenues missed target in June. Total revenue remains ahead of total budget target, even with an increased annual target of $783,150—a continuation of our strong performance. We are now heading into our traditionally busiest months of July and August.

Customer reviews keep coming in very strong. The grounds team has begun trimming up many of our trees to open up views, add air flow and sun for better turf conditions, and ease playability. The team is also busy maintaining and repairing much of our equipment that we use daily to keep operations running optimally. Grounds 1.
