Riverview members vote to create committee to try and save golf club during heated meeting
REDCLIFF, AB — Riverview Golf Club will be staying open, for the time being.
During an emergency meeting Thursday evening, club members overwhelmingly voted down a motion to declare bankruptcy and turn the keys to the course over to the town. They instead voted in favour of a motion to create a committee, featuring club members, town residents and town councillors to find a workable solution for the course.
“A motion was made tonight to form one final, last ditch effort to try to make a board to see if some middle grounds can be reached to get some confidence back in the course, and maybe we can help them out in some way or another,” said Councillor Chris Czember, who was in attendance at the meeting and indicated he would be part of the new committee.
