OUR BOWLING GREEN
It often goes unnoticed how much work on the green is undertaken throughout the winter months, notwithstanding this work carries on during the season as well. We all turn up at the start of the season expecting to bowl on a very good green.
An incredible amount of work has been put in by the Green Keeper Bob Taylor and his Green Maintenance helpers to ensure our green is ready to play on at the start of the season. It is looking in good shape but there is still some work to do in the coming weeks. More money has been invested on the green this year. Thanks to all for their your commitment.
