First and foremost I must congratulate all of the F-Troopers who turned up today in the pouring rain without knowing quite what task was going to be asked of them. F-Troopers Duncan Dyer, Martin Gallagher, Geoff Bridge, Peter Martin, George Foster & Bruce White did a fantastic job cleaning and painting the outdoor furniture & worked with great team spirit to complete the task at hand.
We were able to work under the cover of the clubhouse downstairs - however it was not the most comfortable of places on such a wet, cold and windy day so my sincere thanks to all who participated. We sanded, dusted, washed, removed chewing gum, spider webs together with spiders and all other foreign matter from all the furniture designated to be painted green & put the painting teams to work. Now try to tell me that it won't make a difference!
Morning tea went down well with freshly baked fruit pastries from Chef John and certainly helped to make the morning's work worthwhile. Thanks John!
At this stage we have only one coat of paint done with another to be done through the week where time permits. When that coat of paint is completed the outdoor furniture will look "as new" and is the first step completed to making the downstairs area a more presentable place.
Furniture from around the putting green & the 1st tee have also been done.
It is still raining as I write this & the course is certainly getting a drenching. However play was possible yesterday after all the rain on Saturday I would not write off play for tomorrow just yet. Check with the website and the Pro Shop regarding tomorrow's play.
Another excellent contribution from F-Troop today when it was too wet for us to get out on the course and do our normal clean up tasks.
YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
