Golf Club Update

Posted on by Posted in Committee Posts

Since the Golf Club closure due to COVID19, a few issues have been brought to attention.

1. Membership Fees –Your Twin Towns Membership
Twin Towns will extend your Club Membership for the period during which the Club is closed. Membership renewals will not be sent until the Club reopens.

Your membership, and your Members Advantage points, will be waiting for you when the Clubs reopen.

Your Internal Club membership
Members of Twin Towns internal sporting and social clubs are advised that their membership will be extended for the duration the Clubs are closed.

2. Golf Clubs – For those who have clubs in the pro shop and wish to collect them, Barry will be available Monday March 30th  9 00am–10 00am ONLY
     PLEASE NOTE:   Access to Pro Shop will only be to park in Coles carpark and walk over to Pro Shop to collect clubs:
3. Golf Carts – We have received advice from Augusta Golf Carts re long term storage.
Generally speaking most batteries will hold charge for up to 30 days. This depends on age and condition of the battery.
Most carts will automatically start a recharge once the power is back on. However some need to have their “Run/Tow” switch in the Tow position. If unsure refer to the manual or contact your manufacturer for details.
The power will be isolated on Monday 30/03/20 and will be turned on for the day on the first Monday of the month there after until the course re opens. Access to the sheds will be available on those days.
Please keep your sense of humour during these trying times and stay healthy and safe.
Brent McLennan (President)
