City subsidizes Eagle Bend golf course amid revenue drop
City officials acknowledge Eagle Bend's 2003 revenue decline from about 980000 to 895000 and plan marketing efforts for 2004 while continuing subsidies. Weather, economy, and competition from new courses linger as the Parks and Recreation director pledges actions such as PGA event watch parties, ads in Topeka and Kansas City, and a free Saturday clinic to boost play. The 2004 budget is cut by 152648 to 1.19 million to reduce risk and encourage recovery.
