| Abstract/Contents: | Highlights Broken Sound Club's attempts to become a more self-sustainable club. Includes some of the changes the club had made, such as the replacement of styrofoam cups with recyclable plastic cups, replacement of incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescents , and the changing over of nine natural gas water heaters to solar. States that "topdressing fairways and roughs with the compost at Broken Sound over the next few years is a needed soil amendment strategy for increasing both moisture and nutrient retention." Details that "the setup of a permanent green waste composting operation was approved by The Board of Governors of Broken Sound Club and will go into operation in early 2011." |
