Our course is fortunate to be locat
ed so near the Maitland River. Quite
apart from the "natural beauty of the
river, we use the warm water to ir
rigate the greens. A system of pipes
conducts water to every green. The
pump is located on the river bank in
front of the club house and it is cap
able of forcing water with sufficient
pressure to, sprinkle three greens on
top of the hill simultaneously or two
at the back of the course.
