Council waives green fees for Children's Justice Center golf fundraiser

A representative of the Children's Justice Center Friends Board asked Beaver City on March 24 to waive green fees for an upcoming charity golf tournament that raises funds for therapy, emergency assistance and awareness programs.

The Friends Board President (presenter) described how past city support has included donated green fees and light-pole banners during Child Abuse Awareness Month; the tournament helps pay for children's therapy, travel assistance for clients from distant parts of Garfield County, clothing replacement and other immediate needs.

Council Member Cox moved to waive the green fees and Council Member Albrecht seconded. The council voted in favor and the presenter thanked the council for continued community support.

"We're grateful for the support, and we ask if you would consider waiving the green fees for us again this year," the presenter said before the vote.

Staff will document the waived fees and record the contribution in meeting minutes and any administrative reports.
