Bayshore Drive Miami, Florida 33133 Dear Mr. Howard: August 3, 1963 RECEIVED AUG 5 1983 DEPT. 0: 111EXIEATiON We are now in the process of signing up Dade County golf courses for participation in the 1984 American Lung Associ- ation Golf Privilege Card. We certainly hope, that the City of Miami courses, Mel Reese and Miami Springs will be included, this time around. In 1983 we started off with eight courses. We expect to at least double that number for 184. For a donation of $15.00, this will still be one of the biggest summertime golfing bar- gains in Miami. The courses that are involved have been very pleased with the results and the extra traffic that the cards have brought in during the off-season months. These courses will join in with us again and will participate in the 1984 Golf Privilege Card. Several months ago I sent you a copy of our Annual Report along with other material to inform you of the Lung Association's work (and programs) in our community. You mentioned to me, previously, in a phone conversation, that the next step would be to get an okay from the City of Miami Commissioners. We sincerely hope that the City Fathers will approve our our Golf Priviledge Card and will support the work of the Lung Association. in this regard, we are enclosing two copies of the Golf Privilege Card contract. Please retain one copy for your file and return the other copy to our office. Thank you for your consideration. sincerely, PR: ce Peg ayborn Enclosures Coordiantor; Community Relations rr's d matter or L:re and drearn formerly Dade -Monroe Lung Assoc,anon 83-1056 i COtZlISSION ACTION TO Howard 17. Gary City Manager Carl Kern FROM acting Director Department of Parks and Recreation N. �J CITY OF MIAMI. FLORIOA I INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM CA-E October 31, 1983 FILE SUBJECT Resolution authorizing the 1984 American Lung Association Golf Privileges Card Program REFERENCES ENCLOSURES. It is recommended that the City of Miami participates in the 1984 American Lung Association Golf Privileges Card Program, as per the attached resolution. Over the past several years, the City of Miami has participated in golf card programs which support public health organizations in fostering research and promote higher standards of health among our citizenry. The American Lung Association has initiated a golf priviliges card program in which a donation of $15.00 will offer a summer- time bargain to the golfing patron at approximately 16 courses in greatev Miami. As in the American Cancer Society Golf Card Program, by mandating electric carts, the City will realize ad- ditional funds and new golfers are usually introduced to the City's two courses. The program is a definite advantage to the City. Under the program, a card holder would be entitled to a waiver of the cost of a single greens fee for one round of golf, during the summer months between May 1 and October 31, 1984, at each of the Melreese Golf Course and City of Miami at .Miami Springs. Starting time must be scheduled forty-eight (48) hours in advance for any- time during the weekdays and after 1:00 p.m. on weekends and holi- days, and an electric golf cart is required.
