Repairs done to the fallen Bird Bath
many hands make light work
(I noticed they kept their toes out of the way)
F-Trooper Trevor Harrison (our in house paver expert)
sorting out the pieces
Watch this space in the next month and see the improvements
The bird base support has been concreted in
The base is locked in place and is level - now for the rest.
Peter and I were presented with this fabulous wooden bowl to celebrate
his nine years service on the Board. The bowl was hand made by
Rob Benson and was made out of a silky Oak from the 1st Fairway.
That was a lovely gesture and much appreciated.
Thank you Rob Benson & the F-Troopers.
Once again we have had another rain free week which is causing some distress to the gardens not to mention the course.
We had 14 volunteers today which was great because the wind has been bringing down more loose timber that we would like.
On hand were Duncan Dyer, Trevor Harrison, Kevin O'Brien, Terry Coyle, Rob Benson, Steve Hogg, John Hollebon, Garry Trigg, Don Nicholls, Andy Henebury, Geoff Bridge, Peter Martin, Di Beechey, Jan Martin.
The course was busy with a Charity day but we still managed to get projects done. Those projects worked on were Loose Timber and Rubbish pick up, cleaning out the gutter of the creek that runs from the side of the 6th right through to the creek, cleaned up around the 1st and 10th tees and clubhouse, tree maintenance, watering as many gardens as we could get hoses to including watering the avenue of tibouchinas on the 2nd fairway and the hedge on the 4th tee, hedges at the 14th and 15th; tidied up the Ladies 3rd tee, cleaned the bush toilets, watered the gardens in the green space,
tidied up the 6th tranquility garden and watered the pots there, watered the bike garden, the Ladies 9th tee garden, the potted mandevilla at the 9th green, concreted in a base for the bird bath, glued in the birdbath supports, part tidied up the garden between the 1st and 10th tees, moved in another Xanadu plant from the 14th to the Xanadu Garden and watered all the plants there including the red hedge on the 10th.
Hopefully we have got enough water to the main gardens to save them.
Our morning tea was very welcome today - Thank you Barto!
YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
