Thank you.

Please note that we will be spraying the greens to treat the current fusarium this Thursday morning 1st November 2012.

The spray being used is non toxic and a green dye indicator, also non toxic, will be used to mark the areas sprayed.

Please note that this dye may stick to items of clothing and golf equipment should the ground conditions remain moist / wet.

Thank you.
