Greens
A few of you may have noticed some maintenance activity down on B green this past week. A noticeable ridge impacting bowls being played on Rink 10 was investigated by Ulli after rolling and an 85kg whacker failed to smooth out the issue. A quick look under the ditch highlighted the problem; a tree root from the street had made its way up to the green and was heading towards the clubhouse!
We are working with Ulli and the Board of Management to determine the best course of action to remove the remaining tree root from under the green and return the surface to a playable condition. In the meantime, please follow any and all instructions from Ulli to avoid the area.
