A new saddle for a dying horse


The Select Board approved Town Manager Larry Shaffer's capital request for infrastructure improvements at the Cherry Hill Golf Course, completely enclosing the nine-hole business under a weatherproof dome. The $25 million project will be paid for with state and federal grants and--everybody's favorite Manna from Heaven--Community Preservation Act money.

"Now golfers will not have to go to Florida in the winter to get their weekly fix," said the Town Mangler.

Larry - I have to give you credit for this one. This was the first April Fools i fell for. I was just about to write a ranting comment about the ridiculousness of Cherry Hill.

Keep it up.
