New Caterer Appointed

The Board is pleased to announce that Paul Deaney will be joining us from Monday 16th January 2012. Paul, a qualified chef, has extensive experience in catering for golf clubs and joins us after more than seven years of employment at Hennerton Golf Club.

For many years we have had franchise caterers at Calcot Park and, as members will know, there have been frequent changes every two years or so. However, Paul is joining is as an employee. The Board believes that there will be significant advantages for members from an in-house arrangement and is confident that Paul will deliver good food with good service at reasonable prices.
The Board will arrange a ‘Meet the Chef’ evening reasonably soon after Paul’s arrival and hope that as many members as possible will come along.

The Board would like to thank Larry and Sue who have kindly agreed to continue as our caterers beyond their intended departure date of 30th November to cover the period until Paul becomes available.

Sue Wethey
Vice-Chair
15th December 2011

New Local Ruling on Bunkers

May we bring to your attention the following Local Rule to be introduced with immediate effect...

Competition (only) Local Rule introduced.

If a ball lands in a bunker that has standing water please treat the bunker as “Ground under repair” through the green and apply Rule 25b (1)

Bunkers in general.

Following a recent 'on the course' meeting between Paul Kowalik, the Captain, GM and the HGK, it has been agreed once more that the consistency of the bunkers needs to be addressed.

As a result of that it, has been agreed that any bunker that has a face of approximately 30 degrees or more should not have sand on it so that the ball should roll back to the base.  At the base every effort will be made to ensure that the depth of sand is consistent throughout.  The HGK will be briefing his team as to exactly what his and our expectations are. 

Coupled with this it has been agreed to turf the face of the middle bunker on the 7th.  We will also identify the bunkers where water is lingering and put in place a plan to rectify them.

It is widely agreed that the introduction “aquadine” to assist with the drainage has been a positive move and will continue to be used.
