Decorative Water Cooler Stands
The Amarillo (Texas) Country Club had decorative water cooler stands built locally using angle iron, flat steel and square tubing welded together with caster wheels, painted black, for about $200 each. The ACC lettering, using flat steel, was also placed on either side of the stands as an added touch. The RTIC Ultra Tough 65-quart water coolers ($249.99) measure approximately 32 inches long by 17½ inches wide by 17 inches tall and weigh 37.5 pounds with a capacity of approximately 64 plastic water bottles and ice. The golf shop staff fills and refreshes them each day. They are located on holes 5, 8 and 15, with two more at the clubhouse. Dillan Jones and Chad Scott are the club’s superintendent and assistant superintendent, respectively, and Steve Wolfard and D.A. Weibring are the restoration architects.
Texas-Size Barbeque
This locally made smoker/barbeque is used out on the course for member tournaments at The Amarillo Country Club. The grilling is done on a recycled propane tank that has two separate cooking areas fueled by a 100-pound vertical propane tank. The smaller horizontal cylinder houses the smoker attachment, which is fueled by the firewood in the attached metal storage cage. The maintenance staff is looking forward to also using it in the future. It is roadworthy, with a ball hitch, spare tire, brake/turn signal lights and Texas license plates. Dillan Jones and Chad Scott are the club’s superintendent and assistant superintendent, and Steve Wolfard and D.A. Weibring are the restoration architects.Get curated news on YOUR industry.
