First of all, I don't complain about the executives and I have zero desire to participate in a golf cart parade and make signs. That is just silly talk. There is a large variance in the quality of the executives. Why this is so, I don't know. I am reasonable sure the folks responsible for the maintenance aren't happy with the situation on some of the courses. The conditions on the courses with issues probably won't improve until the weather warms up. I suspect the management would like to shut down some of the courses (Bonita Pass comes to mind) but the high demand for tee times may prevent that from happening.

Maybe ... bring 1000 of your like minded friends to the Golf/CDD Office, line up around the corner ... complain in person, one by one and wait for the press to show up?

Maybe a golf cart parade, with slogans and signs?

I'm the first to admit that the Championship courses are in abysmal condition, but that's a different story. They're privately owned and the owner is entitled to maintain them as he feels necessary and he's entitled to not serve the folks who don't like it.

The Executives are a whole different story. "Government" is not providing what they promised and charge for.

.... or perhaps some folks are complaining because they're not playing well?
