Bat Houses


On our pump house below the 10th Tees
We have installed 5 Bat houses around the golf
course, most of them situated around the pond that you see from the grill room. The purpose of this is to promote a bat colony that will not only have a place to live but also eat insects. We hope that this will limit the amount of insects around the out door patios. This is just one step of many to become a Certified Audubon Cooperative
 Sanctuary Program for Golf Courses. Did you know that bats can eat 600 insects in one feeding! The pictures below show where they have been mounted on the golf course.
