Green Future At Dalyston Recreation ReserveThe grass will soon be greener at the Dalyston Recreation Reserve thanks to a fully automated irrigation system. By Bass Coast - 18th November 2010 - Back to News Council, the Dalyston Recreation Reserve Committee of Management, and a grant from the Victorian Drought Relief for Community Sport Program, jointly funded the $70,000 system currently being installed on the oval.
Bass Coast Shire Council’s Recreation and Leisure Planner, Ella Angarane, said the installation should be completed by mid November.
"The system means the oval will be watered regularly over summer, which will improve the quality of the grass surface dramatically," explained Ms Angarane.
"The water will come from the large on-site dam so the Reserve will have a sustainable, on-going water source.
"As part of the project, we are also doing some top dressing work, so the surface will be more consistent and safer for all users."
Local cricketers will be the first to see and feel the benefits when the competition resumes in mid December.
"These improvements means the ground can be used more over summer and local cricket will certainly be one of the main beneficiaries," said Ms Angarane.
"The Dalyston Football/Netball Club, Powlett River Primary School and the Glen Alvie Cricket Club will also benefit from the improvements.
"I am sure the Committee of Management will also appreciate not spending countless hours over summer shifting the portable sprinklers to try to keep the grass alive!"
The improved grassed playing field will complement the existing recreation facilities: netball court, tennis court, basketball half court, public toilets and a free BBQ, which are open to members of the community. The Reserve also provides a free formal or informal recreation space.
