WORKING BEE: MONDAY 26TH MARCH 2012


THE GREENS COMMITTEE is conducting a working bee on Monday 26th March - working on the course while it is closed for renovations.    The purpose of the working bee is to get as many members as possible at 7.30am to help to remove pest grasses that are taking over the course.   If you can help please assemble at the clubhouse, bringing with you a tool of choice suitable for removing grasses from the fairways. This is not an exercise for the F-Troop volunteers who work on all parts of the course - but directed to ordinary Members (both men and women) who may find enough time to kick in and help for the day.  The more volunteers we can get on the day - the more chance we have of getting the rogue grasses under control.

Come along and do your bit!
