The End Of An Era At Brora?

[Simon Barrington]

I question the notion that the greens staff are/were the ones driving the change to remove the livestock from the course. It would not surprise me at all if a sizable number of club members have been wanting to do this for many years.

Agreed
(Only time will tell if they were correct)

Specifically, what have you heard/seen that makes you think this?

Chris,


In the papers the club put together around this issue ahead of the vote, they mention / remind that in the early 2000s there was a similar vote and the members wanted to remove the livestock then, but for various reasons it was never followed through. I'm not a regular enough visitor to the club to know exactly what the membership feel, but if they wanted to remove the livestock 20 odd years ago, it would surprise me if this recent development was just driven by the greenstaff.


Cheers,


James

Interesting, thanks.


Sounds kinda vague, where can we read about that?

The club sent out a detailed information packet to members for both issues presented in the EGM.
