Abstract/Contents: | Describes the impact that the economic downturn has had on Useless Bay Golf and Country Club, noting that as a result there has been a decline in membership and a 21 percent cut of the operational budget. Reports that the Useless Bay G&CC Men's Club "organized a group of volunteers willing to pitch in so the golf course improvements could continue." Details the tasks of the group, mentioning that "from 8:30-10:30 every Monday morning, while the golf course is closed, the Men's club volunteers work on various projects." Overviews the tasks of the volunteers, including dead wood removal, "cart path repair and edging; painting fences, kiosks, and outbuildings; and maintaining tee markers and signs." |
