June 3rd 2015
Course amendments
The following course amendments were approved by the Management Committee
Fence
The course committee, following discussions with Vincent Egan propose to remove the existing gates (large and small), erect smaller posts and to use the same system as is in place coming off the 7th and going on to the 8th, i.e., clipping a wire across when Vincent needs to move cattle.
This work will be carried out at the earliest suitable opportunity and is subject to ongoing review
Drains at 2nd, 5th & 7th Greens
The course committee, following feedback from members and consideration of all the issues propose to amend the stone drains in front of the 2nd, 5th and 7th greens as follows;
Remove 2” of stone, lay a thin layer of membrane and top this with a 2’’ layer of clay mixed with sand and seed. This is deemed only necessary in sections of drains directly in front of the particular greens.
This work will be carried out at the earliest suitable opportunity and is subject to ongoing review
Water to Greens
It was agreed to research the cost of procuring professional advice on providing water to greens.
