Council approves Boots Hollow Golf Club fees and annual passes ahead of reopening
Summary
The council approved a new rate structure for the city—s public golf course, including annual passes and daily green fees, and endorsed renaming the course to Boots Hollow Golf Club with a rebrand planned for the reopening.
The Bartlesville City Council on July 7 approved a new pricing structure for the city-owned golf course and supported a proposed rebranding that would rename the facility Boots Hollow Golf Club.
Rates and features: Dee Rodman, director of the golf division, presented a reworked rate sheet that includes new annual passes (individual, family and weekday-only), the inclusion of driving-range privileges in season passes, junior rates and replay rates on a space-available basis. The plan also includes two price tracks (with cart and walking-only) and a 15% merchandise discount for pass holders on most items. The city will introduce a new fleet of lithium-ion, GPS-equipped carts; staff said the carts will help course conditioning and pace of play.
Representative prices presented (excluding tax): Individual 7-day annual pass $1,600 (walking) or $2,500 (with cart); weekday pass $1,400 or $2,200 with cart; public green fees without cart $30 weekday/$35 weekend; with cart $47 weekday/$52 weekend. Junior rates and 9-hole options were also proposed.
Renaming and reopening: With the Adams family—s blessing, staff proposed renaming the facility Boots Hollow Golf Club honoring the course founder. Staff said final logo designs would be unveiled before the scheduled reopening and that the public opening is expected in conjunction with an upcoming United Way tournament.
Council action: The council approved the proposed fee schedule and the rebranding direction. Council members said the rates are competitive with the Tulsa-area market and that initial subsidies may continue while the course ramps up operations.
Ending: Staff will monitor operational data and revisit pricing as the course reopens and accrues financial performance information.
