Good Evening Everyone,   I have some good news to share.   McKay and Sons have been awarded the works and have confirmed a commencement date for the 9 th   green reconstruction on Monday March 3 rd   – at the latest. They have assured me if they have the ability to mobilise and commence earlier, they will.   We are hoping for a 2 -3 week construction time, which, if the weather is favourable should be closer to the 2 week mark. I have been advised that during construction, we will have enough room to also accommodate a walkway around the construction zone for players to be able to exit the 9 th   green in the usual fashion.   I will come up with a plan with the grounds team of when we will be transferring the current surface of the 9 th   green into a temporary location which will accommodate our golfers for the next few months, and advise you once we have this confirmed.   Thanks everyone for your patience, very exciting times ahead!   ...

  Don Ball  reflecting on last Saturday afternoon, still not sure what happened, it all started after he hit a great drive on the third short of the bunker on the right just before the creek with steel trap like concertation he proceeded to hit his second shot a seven iron straight but short of the green ,  not bad he though as he went to put his club into his bag.  Bugger no bag or buggy in sight nor did his playing partners have any clue where his clubs and buggy were.  Nothing in front or behind him starting to wonder if the golfing gods were getting back at him for such a good tee  shot,  he heard a churning sound coming from the drain on the  right-hand  side of the path and there they were in the deepest murkiest part of the drain upside down with the wheels still turning Off with his shoes and socks and into the deeps of the murky drain to save his beloved clubs and after great effort he pulled and shoved them to safety.  H e then...
