Next Monday (13th) we have a number of hardy golfers taking up the challenge. You don't need to play the 72 holes but I know some will.

Course Update...
With the course closed for a few days and limited ability to cut the grass, we took the opportunity to work on a couple of improvements. With the fantastic assistance of Dad's Army; Matt's team were able to continue the improvements to the area between the 8th Green and the 9th tee box and improve the security of the course with the installation of some gates. Further fencing will be put in as time permits. Click on the photos below to get more detail.

New Rough Mover
With our ageing 72inch Toro machine on its last legs and desperately needing retirement we have been scouring the country for a replacement, they are hard to find in any Brand at the moment. Fortunately a replacement has been found in Goulburn, it is a 96inch machine which will dramatically improve the productivity in mowing the rough. Thanks to the Board for their speedy approval as this is the last one left in the country. You should see it on the course in the next couple of days, bright red and shiny.
