This is not the first time that an incident like this has surfaced on its course. This has happened before at the Lake Doster Golf Club and as the occurrences increase, hope of a better tomorrow decrease.
The vandalization of the Michigan golf club
The Lake Doster Golf Club recently faced vandalism of its greens by an unknown set of people. The perpetrators were asked to come forward and own up for the heavy loss that they have caused.
As per sources, the Golf course has faced $75,000 worth of damages after this incident. Adding to the misery, this is not the first time that this Michigan Golf Course has gone through a case like this.
Games this season scheduled to happen on the aforementioned greens stand to be suspended. There is little hope that the damage can be undone even after putting in thousands of dollars. The administration has decided to opt for a temporary setup for the time being.

The administration said, “The pictures that you have seen don’t even come close to the damage that you can actually see on the golf course…there’s nothing left, so you’re better off putting out of a ditch on the side of the road than you are being able to putt on our greens right now.”
Clearly, the vandalism was a tough experience to undergo for the administration both financially and planning-wise. The question of safety also limits the chances of business on course. Only time will tell what’s next for the Lake Doster Golf Club.
