Good Morning

Our restricted course did not last as long as hoped.

After the sleet yesterday and the sub zero temps during the evening course conditions are unsafe and the temps in play yesterday are iced over.

Course closed next inspection Sat 18th Dec

Course was inspected at first light and unfortunately still remains closed.
There has been a good thaw over the weekend but still no options available for a restricted course.
There are still a number of paths & temp greens which have 1-2" of compacted snow making them impassable and unplayable.

We will salt the paths to try and break it up but the forecast is also against us with sub zero temperatures most of this week.

This severe weather has let the staff carry on with painting duties and to date all 18 benches stained & varnished and now working our way through the picnic tables.

The big thaw

Well what a week.
Finally can get on with the clear up. Captains day on Saturday so well on with clearing car park and area on 1 st tee for both captains to send one down the middle. ( they hope )
Unfortunately the terrible weather has took its toll on the swans and we have had to have them taken away by sspca who will relocate them.
