We're still collecting donations

On the 27th June 2020 we'd raised £691 with 22 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

I am one of many volunteers who are now helping the club during this difficult time with Covid-19. We believe our stunning setting is providing great physical and mental well-being to our local community who walk round the course and our member and visitor golfers.

It is our Centenary year this year. Our vision is to ensure we can keep the course looking green and healthy for another 100 years.

It costs a significant sum of money each year to keep the course looking good. Our plan is to invest on material and equipment to improve the sustainability for the future. Our irrigation system is past it's best and is inefficient.

Our plan is to use the money raised to improve the irrigation system to make maximum use of the resources we have. We're generally not short of rain in Scotland but it does not always fall at the right times to ensure our parkland remains lush and green. The money will also go towards maintaining the course this year when visitor numbers are likely to be down but the course still needs to be maintained.

We would be grateful for all donations to help with our aims.
