 It was another great success holding a talk/tour of the Greenkeeping department to the members to give them an insight to what we all do etc
 Showing the members what is involved each day in setting up our cutting units etc
 They all even got a shot of using the turf iron

 The large greenside bunker on hole 17 on the Craighead course is now complete, we just need to add sand going into the season then it will be back in play



 Another great job by our staff
 We have been working away at our new short game area with installing the irrigation
 Digging out the area for the short game area new green to get the levels before adding in drains etc
 Before the adverse weather on Tuesday and Wednesday we did manage to cut greens & surrounds, top-dress and rub in on the Craighead course

 The wall area rear of the 14th green which was rebuilt on the Craighead course has been tidied up and levelled, soil added then re-turfed so we can cut right up to wall so it can be on show instead of allowing the deep rough to grow again

 We have rebuilt the 1st greenside bunker on the Craighead course

 The Balcomie course on Tuesday after the snow
We have taken samples from the Craighead course greens to measure our organic matter levels to see if we are going in the right direction with our aeration and top-dressing programs
