read moreMurray River Council has advised that Barham Recreation Reserve's main AFL ground recently underwent some work to relieve compaction on the surface and allow better water infiltration.
The work involved deploying a machine to conduct the process known as ‘Verti Draining’ to punch holes approximately 19mm round to a depth of 75-100mm at 50mm spacings allowing air and fertiliser into the soil to improve the overall turf.
The surface upgrade delivers improved playing conditions for the upcoming football season and more efficient use of water during irrigation. This renovation practice is an important process to ensure the long term sustainability of the playing surface.
Locals may also recall there was some vandalism that occurred late last year around the Complex. Council’s insurance claim to undertake the necessary repairs has recently been approved which means the playground swing, fence railing and all the trees will be replaced over the coming months. This is a big win for council - and therefore community - as this is a large expense to cover.
