Vegetation Management

Last week's wet weather, when we recieved another 34.5mm of rain to take the month's total to 61mm, gave staff the opportunity to lift the lower branches on the Cypress pines on the righthand side of the 1st fairway and also the large Cypress pine near the Ladies 16th tee.
Friday also saw the Course Beautification volunteers in action. This small group of dedicated volunteers meets once a month throughout the year and undertake a variety of tasks which are a great help to the staff in maintaining the golf course. If you are interested in helping out please contact the main office for further information.

Finally to the member, who in a fit of temper during Saturday's competition, took a divot from alongside the hole on the 4th green, this is not acceptable golfing etiquette and I hope that you are proud of yourself!
