That's already been sold and turned into housing - https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/109099935/bowling-club-for-sale-after-controversial-land-sale-loss-of-liquor-licence

A ship can only have one Captain.

The Club cleared all its debts some years ago. Even when in debt the Club was making a profit. The money from the last land sale was invested. A few years ago the Club's General Manager left because he was being micro-managed. I wouldn't be too quick to blame the Track Manager for what happened.

He (the Track Manager) is paid by the Club. If he doesn't do what the Club wants, he doesn't have a job. Watercare charges the Club big bucks for water. Maybe that's why the track was a good 2 the day before the trials?

Wrong question. Who is telling the Track Manager what to do?

I'm wondering what t he watering costs will be (maybe none since Ellerslie has a water bore). Strathayr was put in at Moonee Valley because of racedays being cancelled due to the track being too rain affected to race on. It drains really well. Surely that must mean it requires lots of water to keep the grass growing in summer (its going to drain away as fast as its put on). Why doesn't Flemington or Caufield have Strathayr? Surely they know how great it is since Moonee Valley is close by. Singapore and Hong Kong have Strathayr tracks. Singapore has lots of year round rain and Hong Kong heavy rain in Summer.

No. In days gone by there was a deduction on every dollar put through the tote that went into the amenities account. The money from that account, while collected from betting on racemeetings at all venues, was excluded from being spent venues such Thames and Dargaville under the funding policies devised by those administering the amenities account e.g. NZ Racing Authority.

Maybe when the AWT needs replacing and their is no money to pay for it.

Don't think so. Pat Bell challenged incumbent Robbie Finn for President and won by one vote. That was the end of Avondale Bowling Club. The character you appear to be identifying was from another bowling club. The one at the back of the Pt Chevalier RSA. He goes with the flow: not with what is right or wrong.

CV in 2014 was $2.8 million. AJC sold for $2.75 million. Land was a lemon?

The rule of thumb is one for one e.g. one month break will mean one month training required.

Could be the same shape at Takapuna?
