The third quarter, those months being July, August and September, provided enough revenue to show a modest increase over the same pe riod last year. After operating expenses, net in come for the third quarter came in at $1,283,647, which was a gain over lastyear of $39,350. A 3.2 increase. This was accomplished by produc ing revenues of $2,600,214. As the third quarter of 1999 comes to a close, the Enterprise is happy to report that thus far revenues are up for the entire year by 1 1 .2 over the same nine months in '98. Reported revenues for this year is $6,830,292. This contributed in creating a net income, so far for the year, in the amount of $2,974,047. If the fourth quarter meets budget projections, for the first time since Indian Head opened it will go over the $3 million mark in net income. The hope for year 2000 is to have similar results as in 1999. To do so, the weather will have to cooperate in early months as it did this year, al lowing a jump on the peak season. If this is the case, Indian Head should prevail and once again provide a good return.
