\n\tCourse Update<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tAugust 21, 2020<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\t <\/p>\n

\n\tWe are approaching the end of summer and the warm dry weather continues. Thanks to the effort of Bill Lee and the outside workers the course remain in great condition. I think most golfers will agree that the greens this year have been the best we have seen in a long time. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tAs well we should give a nod or a hello to the 3 gentlemen working on the JCP Project for their hard work pruning the trees along the course. Kudos to Kevin Myles, Joe Grandy and Kevin Bobbet. Thanks guys for a great job. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tCongratulations to Roy George Cluett on his well deserved hole-in-one on Hole #7 on Sunday August 8. Roy was playing with his buddy Joe Dunne and Stan McCarthy when he aced the 148 Par 3 using his driver. Way to go Roy George!<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\n\tThe Town of Frenchman's Cove have received some complaints of golfers speeding while on the way to the golf course. Golfers are reminded that there are families with children who live there as well as many people who go for walks along the road. The speed limit along Golf Course Road is <\/span><\/span><\/font><\/font>15 km per hour<\/b><\/span><\/font><\/font>. Please obey the speed limit and watch out for pedestrians.<\/span><\/span><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n
