Driving Range Tee
The renovations at the driving range tee are progressing well. The grass tee at the driving range has been heavily scarified, top dressed, and fertilised. This renovation is taking advantage of the growing conditions and will help level the surface for you to enjoy once again. The synthetic tee will be used until it recovers enough which should be in about 5 or 6 weeks.
Clubhouse Garden Beds
We have begun to tidy up some areas to plant out. Kim has done a great job in designing a garden that will complement the new extension. The garden beds will have a combination of rocks and mulch with some small plants that will not impact the view from the clubhouse. There will also be a change to the garden areas at the driving range tee to clean up around the new paths and seating areas.
