The 8th and 9th Holes.
A great thanks to the volunteers, staff and contractors for the work completed over the last week. Without our willing volunteers we would not have got this job completed in the time that we have, fantastic effort. Lifting wet turf requires a lot of hands, strong backs and the ideal sized piece of turf (not too large).
Take a look at the photos post during the last week to get a picture of the work done!
This is what was achieved:
It will take some months for the course to “knit” back together and it should be great by mid-spring.
Carts on the 8th hole will need to use the right hand side bridges to access the green. Access to the new path to the 9th tee will be via the back of the 8th green.
Please keep carts on the new path from 9th tee box to past the new pipe, the turf and surrounds in this area are still very wet.
