			<title>Course Work - March 2013</title>

			<description>&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Proposed Coursework March 2013&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Greens staff will be working on the undernoted areas in March:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bushes are being cleared from the right hand side of the first. &lt;strong&gt;For safety reasons, play will commence from the 10&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; tee during week days until this work is completed.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The bunker at the 11th green should be completed this week.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The path from 6&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; tee along by the pond will be replaced..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bunkers at the RHS 3rd and LHS 6&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; will be repaired.  There is also a bit of turf work to do around the 6th bunker.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is hoped to repair a second path by the end of the month.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At the end of March/beginning of April, staff will tine and over-seed fescue depending on the weather.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Granular fertiliser including Iron to continue to combat moss will also be applied at some point.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chris Goode&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Greens Convenor&lt;/p&gt;

			<title>Wee Course</title>
			<link>http://www.scotscraiggolfclub.com/members/members-news/wee-course/</link>
			<description>&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;A Wee course has been prepared on the practice strip which is primarily aimed at junior golfers aged ten and below.  It is hoped that our youngest members will develop a sense of ownership with a part of Scotscraig Golf Club that they call their own.  All are welcome to play the course but priority times have been allocated for its use.  Members using the practice area should avoid making divots on closely mowed areas when not playing the course.&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Practice Area Timings&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;All members are advised that the practice strip will be closed on&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;Sundays between 4.00 – 5.00pm&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;and&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;Thursdays from 6.00 – 8.00pm&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;Effective from Sunday 17&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; June 2012&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; This is to allow the 4 hole course to be opened for both the juniors and members.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; The practice green and short game area will still be available for use.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; Please call in to the Pro Shop and advise them if you are using the 4 hole course area and pick up your “Wee Course” score card.&lt;/p&gt;
    
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;We hope members appreciate and enjoy this further enhancement to the facilities at Scotscraig Golf Club&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;TO ALL MEMBERS OF SCOTSCRAIG GOLF CLUB&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In the current climate, golf clubs are finding it very difficult to retain their membership and most clubs now have no Waiting List.  Scotscraig is no different.  Scotscraig has no Waiting List and the Full Membership is currently 80 Membersshort of the maximum permitted in accordance with Clause 3. of the Club’s Constitution.   Members are reminded that there is an Incentive Scheme currently in place and Council would like to encourage members to participate.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;With effect from Friday 1&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; April 2011 any Member (i.e. The Proposer), who introduces a new Member to Scotscraig Golf Club will receive the amount of £25.00 credited to his/her Loyalty Card.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MEMBERS SHOULD NOTE THAT PROPOSERS AND SECONDERS FOR MEMBERSHIP MUST BE A MEMBER OF SCOTSCRAIG FOR A MINIMUM OF 2 YEARS IN ACCORDANCE WITH CLAUSE 9. OF THE CLUB’S CONSTITUTION.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Members should also note that there is a section on the Club’s Web Site relating to Membership, and Application forms can also be downloaded from the Web Site.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;There is currently still an Entry Fee of £500 but Council have approved that this can now be paid up over a period of 10 years at a minimum of £50 per annum.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

			<title>4th Hole Development Plan</title>
			<link>http://www.scotscraiggolfclub.com/members/members-news/4th-hole-development-plan/</link>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Scotscraig 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; Hole Development Plan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The second half of the 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; hole has some areas that cause problems to both golf and course management, which are outlined below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. The walkways at the end of the fairway are poorly defined and range from thin turf to being totally overgrown.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. The walkway to the left of the green is constantly worn and impossible to maintain turf in desirable condition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. The area to the right of the green was severely penal with bushes growing up to and over the semi-rough.  This left little or no option to drop within the rules of golf other than, at times to go to the second tee.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. The left edge of the green is dominated by poa annua and permanently stressed due to heavy traffic as it is virtually the only route taken onto the green.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. The turf on the rear tier of the green is dominated by poa annua and weak due to tree root invasion.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Actions that would alleviate these issues:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Clearing the gorse and broom at the end of the fairway and create 3 or 4 defined walkways to the approach.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Widen the walkway to the left of the green to allow improved traffic and turf management.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. Clear the area between the 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; green and the 2&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt; tee and maintain it as grassland.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. Create a walkable route to the right of the green to enable improved traffic management and allow for more traffic to enter the green from the right.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Carry out a root prune to the rear of the green to prevent the trees from drawing important moisture and nutrients and causing turf stress.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Summary&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; is a feature hole at Scotscraig Golf Club and, like others here, has become overgrown with a lot of the attraction being lost.  The 4 actions above will enhance the playing of the hole without detracting from the challenge in playing it.  The changes will also improve the ability to manage it and allow staff to raise the quality of turf surfaces in this area of the course.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Changes implemented so far:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During 2009/11 the actions detailed below were carried out with varying success.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. The area to the left of the green has had several attempts to re-turf it and plug gaps in the turf.  Although slight improvement has been made it still remains an area of weak turf due to traffic stress.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. The main route to the approach has been re-turfed but remains weak as there are few options to use an alternative route.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. The area to the right of the 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; green has been cleared prior to reinstating the area and maintaining it as grassland.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. The area to the right of the approach has had bushes cleared and this will continue across the area at the end of the fairway.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. A root prune was carried out, cutting the roots of all trees to the rear of the green.  This will ensure over-seeding is more successful in establishing stronger turf to the rear of the green.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Future work to be completed 2012/13:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. The area to the right will be reshaped with a walkable route onto the right hand side of the green and round the rear of the green.  The whole area will as much as possible be reshaped to allow a tractor/rough mower combination to travel across the ground, enabling rough grass management in line with other areas of the course.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. The routes from the fairway to the approach will be shaped and turfed to provide better walkways.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. The bank to the left of the green will have the bushes removed and the ground moved into the hollow to the left of the approach.  This will have the effect of widening the walkway to the left of the green and enable improved turf and traffic management.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As with the 16&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; hole this work will be done on a staged basis to enable other work to be done across the course and allow one area to recover before another is opened up.  Following the main work this winter the area to the right of the green will take most of 2012 to re-establish as grassland.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We look forward to returning this golf hole to its former glory and ensuring it is sustainable into the future.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Members and visitors are advised that work on the road &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;across the 14&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; fairway will commence on Monday 12&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt; March.  This work will take approximately 5 days.  In &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;view of this, the 14&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; hole will be played as a Par 3 from &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;a tee on the far side of the ditch.  Play will be to the &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;normal green.  Players will therefore have to walk from &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;the 13&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; green to the temporary tee past the ditch.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WE APOLOGISE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY CAUSE.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
