A New York-area golf club is recovering from vandals tearing up some of its fairways and greens.
The private club Skenandoa Club, located in Clinton, New York, posted several photos of the severe damage done to the golf course, with tire marks all over.
“I’m literally sick to my stomach,” says the post written by owner Michael Intartaglia. And you can see why. The damage occurred on the eight green and ninth hole tee, fairway and bunker.
One of the golf club’s Facebook followers crunched some numbers on what the potential repair bill might look like:
Estimated Total Damage Range:
- Tee Boxes $2,000 – $4,000
- Fairways $3,000 – $5,000
- Greens $4,000 – $8,000
- Labor/Equipment $1,000 – $2,000
- Products/Materials $500 – $1,000
- TOTAL $10,500 – $20,000+
The vandals drove a large vehicle sometime late Tuesday/early Wednesday this week. The mostly private course does accept some public play Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday.
