| From an attendee, a
professional local CPA - "If you are concerned about the future of
FEGC, we urge you to take a few minutes to read the article below.
It was posted to the internet on October 24, the day after Tucson
City Council approved Manager's recommendation to put FEGC on a path
to closure. This blog article looks at FY's 2000 - 2012. Part of
Manager's recommendation, approved, is to close El Rio and move the
entire property to Parks & Rec. The plan is to keep the First Tee
and reconfigure as a "family learning center". This is a huge plus
for City Golf. Of Golf's operating losses (before debt service) of
$1.738 million over the past 3 fiscal years, El Rio's losses were
$1.381 million, or 79.5% of the total loss." |

Fred W. Enke and Joe Batiste might have been
the most versatile athletes in southern
Arizona history. Enke was named all-state in
football, basketball and baseball at Tucson
High in the 1940s – and starred in all three
sports at the University of Arizona before
playing in the NFL
