I have been asked to bring the following to the attention of the birding
community. As you all know, a Cattle Egret, now gone, was present for
several days in early November in Ajax. There were some trespass issues that
arose. These issues quickly came to light as several observers walked on the
greens and fairways in search of the bird. Once they were told of the issues
of liability, property rights and the potential to actually damage the
greens and fairways or the possibility for injury, virtually everyone
complied. That said - not everyone did.
I worked with the management at both the Vandermeer Nursery and the
Carruther's Greek GC to ensure access and they most graciously agreed to
cooperate. Golf Course management was clear however that access was only
permitted along the north boundary of the course near Bayly or from the
parking area by the Club House.
The General Manager advised me that she was concerned that not everyone
complied so has asked me to pass on the following message:
Hello Geoff and Group,
Unfortunately due to a few individuals of your group not adhering to the
conditions George Arevalo stated in allowing access to Carruther's Creek
Golf and Country Club we must no longer adhere to the previous arrangement
allowing you on the grounds of our facility. We are no longer able to allow
anyone who is not a direct customer of Carruther's Creek Golf and Country
Club on the property.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Carruther's Creek Golf and Country Club
