The Deer Park Men鈥檚 Club made a major payment to the City of Yorkton Monday.
Appearing at the regular meeting of Yorkton Council Club President Cliff Trombley reminded that they were before Council a year ago to arrange a six-year interest free loan from the City for up to $85,000 for a new green to be constructed at #7 on the course.
The construction cost ended up being $150,000, with the Club putting up the initial $65,000, with some work in regards to cart path and sand traps yet to be completed.
Under the agreement with the City the men鈥檚 club had agreed to pay $14,000 per year for five years, with a final payment of $15,000 in year six.
However, through a series of fundraising events this year, including relaunching the 鈥楤lue Owl; men鈥檚 tournament, the club presented the City with a cheque for $40,000, leaving $33,700 outstanding.
鈥淥ur goal is to be back next year to pay the balance,鈥� said Trombley.
