AT THESE CLINICS, THE CLUB PROVIDES ALL EQUIPMENT INCLUDING MALLETS, BALLS, CLIPS, ETC. IN ADDITION TO FREE INSTRUCTION. VISITORS CAN COME TWO TIMES BEFORE THEY ARE EXPECTED TO JOIN.CROQUET PROVIDES A MEANS OF EXERCISE FOR SENIORS WHO CAN NO LONGER PARTICIPATE IN MORE STRENUOUS ACTIVITIES SUCH AS TENNIS OR GOLF. THE AVERAGE AGE OF OUR MEMBERSHIP IS OVER SIXTY-FIVE AND WE HAVE ACTIVE MEMBERS OVER NINETY. WE TOOK A SURVEY AND FOUND THAT MANY OF OUR MEMBERS, INCLUDING SOMEFROM ENGLAND, CAME TO SARASOTA COUNTY BECAUSE OF OUR CLUB AND COURTS. MANY OF OUR CURRENT MEMBERSHAVE PURCHASED HOMES AND RELOCATED HERE. WE ARE THE LARGEST PUBLIC CLUB IN THE COUNTRY, IN TERMS OF THE SIZE OF OUR MEMBERSHIP AND HAVE SOME OF THE BEST MAINTAINED CROQUET LAWNS IN THE COUNTRY THANKS TO OUR OUTSTANDING PARTNERSHIP WITH SARASOTA COUNTY.THIS FISCAL YEAR, IN ADDITION TO ALL THE SCHEDULED ACTIVITIES HAPPENING SEVEN DAYS A WEEK, THE CLUB HOSTED THIRTEEN TOURNAMENTS, PLUS FOUR ONE DAY COMPETITIVE EVENTS. THESE INCLUDED TOURNAMENTS IN THREE DIFFERENT GAMES THAT WE PLAY, GOLF CROQUET, AMERICAN SIX WICKET, AND ASSOCIATION LAWS CROQUET. THERE WERE SINGLE AND DOUBLE FORMATS, CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS, NATIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL WHERE PLAYERS FROM ACROSS THE UNITED STATES AND FOREIGN COUNTRIES PARTICIPATED. TUESDAYS THERE ARE FREE LESSONS FOR NON-MEMBERS AS WELL AS MEMBERS. THERE ARE PLANS TO RESTART SUNDAY FREE PLAY FOR THE PUBLIC IN NOVEMBER.THE CLUB IS CURRENTLY AT 260 MEMBERS AND HAS SEVEN FULL COURTS. FOUR NEW SHADE STRUCTURES WERE ERECTED THIS YEAR THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO ALL THE COURTS. THE PLANNING COMMITTEE IS CURRENTLY NEGOTIATING WITH VENICE AND SARASOTA COUNTY TO REPLACE THE ANTIQUATED ELECTRIC SYSTEM. NEW LIGHTING AND ENHANCED SHADE SYSTEMS ARE THE IMMEDIATE GOALS.PART OF THIS GROWTH IS A GROWING INTEREST IN THIS SPORT. BUT ANOTHER PART OF THE GROWTH HAS BEEN THE SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE LOCAL POPULATION. AS MORE PEOPLE MOVE INTO THE AREA AROUND OUR CLUB, THERE IS A GROWING INTEREST IN MEMBERSHIP. 248561 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 9 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 FL X THE ORGANIZATION 3525685099 1104 SUNSET DR VENICE FL 34285 X JIM COLING PRESIDENT 20.00 X X 0 0 0 GARY ANDERSON TREASURER 15.00 X X 0 0 0 LYUDMILE KISELEVA SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 JACKIE JONES DIRECTOR 4.00 X 0 0 0 HANS PETERSON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 4.00 X X 0 0 0 MARK CLAFF VICE PRESIDENT 10.00 X X 0 0 0 KEN DEASON DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN GOLDENER IMMEDIATE PAST PRESIDENT 15.00 X 0 0 0 ELLIE GRIFFITH DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 78074 47106 125180 REGISTRATION FEES 711210 83150 83150 83150 5404 5404 5 0 5 5 5 OTHER REVENUE 900099 910 910 910 214649 84060 0 5409 37625 37625 307 307 3165 3165 5000 5000 1000 1000 1626 1626 7846 7846 25496 25496 517 517 10924 10924 3101 3101 EXPANSION PROJECT EXPEN 116767 116767 FOOD, BEVERAGE & KITCHE 26233 26233 REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE 11693 11693 TOURNAMENT EXPENSES 9012 9012 1612 1612 261924 248561 13363 0 70046 108080 233549 121217 40 0 105164 24669 53085 80495 356720 309792 156 183 285 605 441 788 X 178572 273777 177707 35227 356279 309004 356720 309792 -47275 0 X 0 0 0 X 40244 210342 134322 189698 125180 699786 54764 22197 72111 59715 83150 291937 105 2315 2420 95008 232644 208748 249413 208330 994143 32402 13100 10100 500 56102 0 32402 13100 10100 500 56102 938041 8 24 5404 5436 8 24 5404 5436 105 270 214 910 1499 95008 232757 209042 249627 214644 1001078 0.93700 0.93520 0.00540 0.00020 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 15771 4800 10971 89393 19869 69524 80495 FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 6 THE MEMBERS ELECT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY.
