Other than Using my Lawn Mower, What will this entail? Are we clearing scrub or just doing the greens?

There is alot of Grass around the Yellomundee course, Trimming the grass along the track is a great way to keep the track clear. There are parts that a lawn mower would be very useful for.

There will be two main tasks undertaken on Sunday:

- repairs to the southern end of Hidden Bridge. There is still quite a bit of water draining down here, and we can divert some of this back to its original course. Wheelbarrows, shovels, spades etc will be used to bring a bit of fill in.

- normal track edge clearing using line trimmers etc.

So, bring along any of the above tools you have. BBQ lunch and drinks by WSMTB. See you there,
