Once again I trust all blog followers have survived TC Alfred.  The system was certainly erratic with the distribution of damage but our local community seems to have been some of the worst hit.  I was speaking with Murwillumbah Course Super Brian Cox this morning and he said they barely have a branch down, but are within 30cms of flooding.  Luck of the draw I guess.

Out on the golf courses and the only positive is that all infrastructure is still in place at the moment.  The clubhouse, buggy shed, 1/2 ways, Pro Shop and our maintenance shed are all in tact and seemingly secured.

The same can't be said for the courses.  A further 50 trees were uprooted overnight adding to yesterday's 40.  Yes you read that right.  And I am not talking small trees either.

There is still a lot of internal water on the courses that can't drain off and the river was still well below breaking its banks this morning.  But to be honest the water is the least of our concerns.  How we are going to move these trees is a mind boggling problem given the sheer scale of the task.

The first contractor will be onsite Sunday morning to clear Davey Street so we can access our shed and then look at the Clubhouse access road.
