Vandals

Unfortunately on Sunday night we have had some vandals attack the 21st Green taking divots out of the surface. Around 30 taken which have needed plugging. 

The last few days have brought dry and warm conditions about normal for June but long overdue. The irrigation is starting to be used on the greens and tees to ensure they do not dry out. The newly planted trees are being watered and any shrubs around the new 20th hole. The 20th Tee will be turfed on the Wednesday now the irrigation is fitted we can water it daily should we need to. 

The rest of the bunker sand has been added to bunkers which were short most of the bunkers now have been topped up. Another load of sand will be purchased at the end of the year. 

We are starting to strim around tree bases to tidy up long grass. Sprinkler heads and irrigation boxes are also being trimmed. 

We have had a sample of reinforced matting sent to us which we are hoping to use across the 10th track. This should tidy the stone on this track which tends to spill onto the grassed area's. The matting is around 2 inches deep and it's filled with either soil or stone which cars can drive over but does not disrupt the infill. Once installed but should last a number of years.
