WESTERN CANADA TURFGRASS ASSOCIATION 41 Puddicombe Golf is a family-owned and operated business with our head office based in Edmonton, Alberta. We've been in business since 1981 and each of us specializes in a different aspect of the golf business. Golf is our passion, from consulting and business plans to design and construction. And we still occasionally have time for a round of golf. Sid has been in the business since 1947, so he's golfed a few more rounds than the rest of us. He didn't have to twist any arms to have us join him in the business. We grew up on golf courses. The objective of Puddicombe Golf has always been to create an interesting test of golf where your players will remember each and every hole, use every club in their bag and willingly return. The key is to work with the land in order to make the course "player friendly" and ensure all hazards are visible. "Bogey should be easy to achieve and Par should be earned" It is important to create a smooth flow of play and not discourage the recreational players with unreasonable tests on their abilities. Our vast experience gained in all facets of golf course development and operations is passed on directly to our clients in order to streamline the development process. Every client has a different dream, therefore the services we provide are designed around each project. We can guide you through all phases of: initial planning and consulting; preparation of business plans; permitting and environmental issues; design plans; construction phases; grand opening; and ongoing maintenance. When you're looking to build or renovate, or if you're still in the planning phase, you can find inspiration for your dream by calling the Puddicombe Golf Team.

Centrally located in the North Okanagan, 23km North of Vernon BC on Salmon River Road just minutes off Hwy 97N, this business, indepen- dently owned and operated by Ross and Cynthia Munsey, officially opened in the summer of 2011. "We proudly are offering washed 2mm & 3mm topdressing and bunker sand as well as sand for new golf course construction," says Ross. Their sand meets all the check marks. Chemical analyses by Brookside Laboratories Inc. (U.S.G.A. A2LA accredited lab) indicate that not only does it meet all USGA requirements but it is also very low in sodium... so salt contamination is not an issue and will not restrict seed and sod establishment. Product analyses are available upon request. "We are currently supplying courses in the North and South Okanagan and Kamloops, Salmon Valley Sand & Gravel look forward to becom- ing your long term supplier of quality sand," concludes Munsey.
