Royal Golf Center

As Ledreborg Palace Golf is in an unfortunate situation at the present, we do hope that the members will find a solution with Lady Silvia and her husband John Munro that everyone will benefit from. It would be a pity for a Golf site like Ledreborg to be left unused.

Regarding Royal Golf Center, we can reassure you: All expenses for the construction of the facilities are financed by our selves, in current account with Poul Sundberg Holding. Therefore no bank loans have been raised and all expenses are taken out of our own account.

Your deposits are all safe on a depositing account and can not be released until the golf courses are ready.

Following to the event for certificate owners on November 1st a lot of mail has been returned to us. If any changes have been made to your address, please forward the information to ts@royalgolf.dk or contact Trine Schade on +45 25 10 20 64 in case you did not receive the invitation.

If you had no chance to participate in the event or didn’t receive the invitation, we would still be happy to present the facility to you. Please contact Trine Schade for further arrangements.

Kind regards

Morten Sundberg

Royal Golf Center

Da vi kan forstå at Ledreborg Palace Golf er kommet i en ulykkelig situation, håber vi dog meget for alle medlemmerne at der bliver fundet en god løsning med komtesse Silvia og hendes mand John Munro. Det ville være synd at et anlæg som Ledreborg skulle stå ubenyttet hen.

Med hensyn til Royal Golf Center kan vi berolige. Vi finansierer selv alle anlægsudgifterne i mellemregning med Poul Sundberg Holding. Der er ikke optaget banklån, men derimod dækkes anlægsudgifterne af vores egne penge, der står på vores egen konto.

Jeres indskud står på en deponeringskonto og kan først frigives når banerne står klar.

Da vi har fået en del invitationer retur fra vores certifikatejerarrangement lørdag den 1. november 2008, bedes du venligst sende dine adresseændringer til ts@royalgolf.dk eller kontakte Trine Schade på telefon +45 25 10 20 64, hvis du ikke har modtaget en invitation.

Hvis du var forhindret denne dag eller du ikke modtog invitationen er du velkommen til at kontakte Trine Schade og aftale en rundvisning på anlægget.

Med venlig hilsen

Morten Sundberg

News week 48-49
(November 23th – december 7th 2008)

The frosty weather has entered the country. This does not prevent us from maintaining a high level of activity here in Royal Golf Center. The weather conditions has made it easier to drive soil into the area.

Below you can read about the issues we are working on

• In the past week about 100 trees have been planted on the driving range and the 9-hole course. In the weeks to come, another 200 trees will be planted on the golf course.
• We are now ready to install drainage on the last two holes for this year: #14 and #16.These two holes will be completed within Christmas. This brings us ahead of schedule and when the new year starts, we only have 2 more holes that needs installation of fairway drainage.
• The lake by hole 17 is now being emptied, in order to cover it with benzonit. This will separate salt water from fresh water and thereby ensure water supplies for irrigation of the golf courses.
• Bulkheads will be installed by water holes and ditches to create challenging hazards for our players.
• Despite the cold weather it is still possible to shape the soil. This work will continue until the middle of December this year. This means that when the new year begins, only two more holes need shaping.

In the new year, the irrigation system will be installed on the 18-hole course, followed by the final shaping of the course before seeding time.

We welcome you in Royal Golf Center.

Kind regards

Frosten har gjort sit indtog her i Royal Golf Center, hvilket dog ikke har lagt en dæmper på aktivitetsniveauet. De gunstige køreforhold har gjort at vi har kunnet bringe mere jord ind.

Følgende opgaver er vi i gang med på nuværende tidspunkt:

• I sidste uge er der plantet cirka 100 træer på driving rangen og 9-hullers banen. I den kommende tid, vil yderligere cirka 200 træer blive plantet på banen.
• Vi er nu klar til at lægge dræn på de sidste 2 huller for i år, henholdsvis hul 14 og 16. Disse 2 huller er færdige inden jul. Det vil sige at når det nye år starter, er vi forud for tidsplanen og mangler kun fairwaydræn på 2 huller.
• Søen ved hul 17 er vi begyndt at tømme for vand, med henblik på at ”fore” med bezonit. Dette gøres således at vi kan holde ferskvand og saltvand adskilt, og dermed sikre vandforsyning til brug for vanding af golfbanerne.
• Der vil blive opsat spunsvægge (red. trævægge) ved vandhuller og grøfter, for at kreere udfordrende hazarder for vore spillere.
• Trods kulden, kan banen stadig shapes. Dette arbejde vil foregår til midten af december i år. Det vil sige, at når det nye år starter, er der kun 2 huller der mangler at blive shapet.

I det nye år vil der blive installeret vandingssystem på 18-hullersbanen, hvorefter den endelige finshaping af banen fremgår inden såning.

På gensyn i Royal Golf Center.

(November 10th. - November 23rd. 2008)

Rainy days do not stop the crew from working here at Royal Golf Center. If you can’t shape, you can establish drainage and all necessary drainage pipes are being brought in to the teespots.

The original goal was to complete the drainage systems on 9 holes within 2008. But with a fantastic effort of the whole crew, we will end up entering the new year with as much as 15 holes out of 18!

On the photos you can see some of the activities carried out these weeks:

• By #14 large amounts of soil is being brought in to achieve the right design
• We got company: A Swan couple has moved in to the lake by #18
• As you can see on photo catch basins for rain are being established all over the course
• By #9 the last part of the drainage work is being completed
• By # 6 drainage work is well on its way

Despite the autumnal weather it has been possible to perform shaping work for one month longer than first anticipated. This brings us well ahead of the time schedule.

All in all we are well on the way in constructing the 18-hole championship course in Royal Golf Center.

Kind regards

Regnvejr holder ikke mandskabet tilbage her i Royal Golf Center. Kan der ikke shapes, så kan der drænlægges, og på alle huller køres de nødvendige dræn ind til teesteder.

Den oprindelige målsætning var at færdiggøre drænsystem på 9 huller inden årets udgang. Men alle har ydet en kæmpe indsats og vi kan således skyde det nye år ind med hele 15 huller ud af 18!

På billeder kan man se hvad det er vi arbejder med netop nu:

• Ved hul 14 køres store mængder jord ind, for at opnå det ønskede designresultat
• Vi har fået faste gæster: I søen ved hul 18 er et svanepar flyttet ind
• Som det ses på et af billederne, etableres der på hele banen brønde til opsamling af regnvand
• Ved hul 9 er drænlægningen netop ved at blive færdiggjort
• Ved hul 6 er vi nu i fuld gang med at etablere drænsystem

Trods efterårsregn har det været muligt at shape på banen en måned længere end forventet. Dette betyder at vi rent faktisk er forud for den oprindelige tidsplan.

Alt i alt er vi således godt på vej mod målet med etableringen af den store 18-hullers mesterskabsbane i Royal Golf Center.
