GROUND DEVELOPMENT Bowral Dressage Club                Archived

April 2010

Hi Members,
Prior to our April Competition extensive works were carried out on the warmup arena to improve the drainage as well as adding 110 tonnes of sand. The Centennial Vineyards arena was improved by adding 20 tonnes of premium sand also. Total costing of this work was in excess of $4,000.
We hope that you noticed these changes and were happy with the work. 
Safe riding,

Regards, Mark

Ground Development Report

At the end of 2009 drainage was put around the arenas to drain the water out that was holding in the arenas. The cost of this was $18,000. The next project for 2010 is to put on a watering system to the warm up arena. We are now looking for donations from members to help towards us achieving this. A quote is now being obtained for this work and BDC will be applying again for a grant from the NSW Communities Sport & Recreation Facilities Grant Program 2010. The grant offers funds of 50% to the project and we have to add the rest. If sending in a donation please note that it is for the BDC Ground Development Account.
