Not only does this announcement permit normal numbers to return to the clubhouse but it also allows the club to reintroduce our social calendar. Your Social Committee will be meeting shortly to look at this however I can confirm that events such as the Karrinyup Cup Dinner, Jubilee Foursomes Dinner and the Quiz Night will proceed. Further details will be released shortly.<\/p>\n
Bushfire Appeal Donation Update<\/h2>\n
Following our bushfire appeal back in February, whereby $4 of every competition fee for a week was donated to a bushfire charity, we were able to raise $2,700.\u00a0 The Mallacoota Golf and Country Club in Victoria were the nominated recipients of our donation.\u00a0 Their club sustained sever damage to their irrigation system, some greens, trees along fairway edges and the fairways themselves were totally destroyed.\u00a0 They are a small club of 110 members and needless to say they were financially “tight”.\u00a0 The President has sent a letter of heartfelt thanks to the Committee and Members of Lake Karrinyup for our donation and will put the funds towards good use.\u00a0 They now have holes 1 – 9 open for play, whilst holes 10 – 18 remain closed.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

On course we continue to see above average rainfall. The main focus on the greens throughout the wet winter months is to keep them as dry as possible and provide the best playing conditions we can. To make this possible you will see us continue to spike the greens as the benefits to regular aeration are significant. It creates a physical hole which rainfall can move through, it allows oxygen into the soil and it encourages root depth and mass. The majority of the time through winter we will use small needle tines which gives us these benefits with minimal impact on the putting surface. We also have various other methods such as application of a penetrating wetting agent that pulls water through the surface.\u00a0 Please click here<\/a><\/strong> to read the full course update article from our Course Superintendent, Fraser Brown.<\/p>\n1968 Australian Open @ LKCC<\/h2>\n

From our Wine Sommelier – Darry Wall<\/h2>\n
New to our Wine List is the Pinelli 2018 “Reserve” Durif.\u00a0\u00a0Related to shiraz and aka Petit Syrah, this variety is fast finding its feet in W.A with regions such as Perth Hills and Swan Valley embracing its big bold charm.\u00a0\u00a0This wine is rich, full bodied and velvety smooth. You’ll find distinct characters of blackberry and mulberry with lingering chocolate notes.\u00a0\u00a0Firm and well provided tannins give this wine structure and a great finish.\u00a0\u00a0Perfect for these winter days!<\/p>\n
To\u00a0view our updated Wine List, please click here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\nI have also put together some 6-pack wine specials which have previously been popular with members.\u00a0 To\u00a0view the June specials click here<\/a> and email your order through\u00a0via darry@lkcc.com.au<\/a><\/p>\nFrom the Executive Chef<\/h2>\n

Complimented by cous cous, tomato and chickpea ragout, Greek yoghurt and the crunch of almonds and sweetness of dried currants. The perfect winter’s dish.<\/p>\n
