Divot Party
Thursday 13th March
There were some bleary eyes on display as 30+ members answered the call from our Director of Greens, Marcus Dawson, to come along and participate in the annual divot (filling) party. The aim of the exercise being to encourage faster recovery leading to a better playing surface for all to enjoy.
Armed with their buckets and trowels (and several layers of clothing), the volunteers were greeted at 7:45 by Colin Thomas and split into two teams, one responsible for the front nine and the other, the back nine.
Roughly two hours later, with no sign of any unfilled divots, the teams returned to the clubhouse and enjoyed a magnificent, well deserved hearty breakfast prepared by Dani and team.
After breakfast, some of the party popped out for a few holes to create some new divots!
