Submission of the building permit application for the long-awaited 9-hole course to the city of Kloten and the municipality of Lufingen.
After a long time of worrying, after surviving countless waiting periods, after setbacks that were assumed at short notice, the building permit for our expansion project "golf course extension to 9 holes" has become legally effective. This confirmation took place on 18.11. by the cantonal building appeals court and was based on the fact that the 06.11. expired appeal period without objections. In order to celebrate this achievement, we invited all our members who had been admitted up to that point on December 7th at 11:30 a.m. to the symbolic groundbreaking ceremony.
