We had a lovely sunny day to help dry out the course today which was very welcome after something like 3 1/2 inches of rain over Friday/Saturday last week.
My apologies for the quality of some of the photos this week - I am still learning to use my new camera properly.

F-TROOP - STUMP REMOVALS DAY TWO:
Our F-Troopers had another full day of hard work getting out as many tree stumps as possible while we still had the excavator to do the stump removals.
Today we had Duncan Dyer, Peter Martin, Martin Gallagher, Noel Fenning, Fred Middleton, Bruce White, George Foster and Tony (the excavator driver) with myself acting as gofer for the morning teas and lunches so that the boys could work through without interruption.
I am not sure of the number of stumps that were collectively removed over the two day project but members should notice a big improvement in many areas of the course where previously the stumps were unsightly or dangerous to carts and machinery.
A word of WARNING for anyone using carts or trikes on the course for the next few weeks - the area on the 6th fairway along the creek where many stumps have been removed - the soil is very soft where the stumps have come out and new soil had gone in ( as we found out today when the F-Troop Ute got bogged). This area had been greatly improved over the last couple of weeks by F-Troopers and it will be able to be kept neat by the rough cutter now that the stumps are out of the way.
MANY THANKS TO OUR MEMBERS WHO HAVE VOLUNTEERED THEIR TIME FOR THE STUMP REMOVAL PROJECT - YOU ARE ALL LEGENDS!
YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
