BULLETIN Wednesday 24^th April

Apologies for the early Bulletin but I am away for the next 5 days

Creek work and further drainage works

The Contractors are very busy along the 15^th Fairway/creek side re-establishing the creek bank and fixing drainage outlets. They have also removed the willow tree stump.

Further tidy up works will take place along the 3^rd Fairway in the near future.

Major maintenance will be completed by Alan Rockliff on other drainage channels in the coming weeks. We need a couple of volunteers to drive our truck and work with Alan on this project. Contact Jim Martin.

Please remember to treat any works and wheel/track marks as GUR until further notice.
