Brooktrails Golf Course Seen as Finest Nine Hole Challenge
Brooktrails, though officially a nine hole course and not listed among the nation’s Top Twenty, is praised by visitors. Golf pro Bob Chipps calls it the best, natural course with hazards formed by terrain, deer on the greens, and excellent drainage. PGA approved and a member of the Northern California Golf Association.

A Batelle Institute unit in Frankfurt developed luminous reflectors that switch from green to yellow orange and red as temperatures drop to indicate possible ice. They mount on guide posts and require no power, signaling drivers by headlights. Production could begin soon with US state testing expected over one to two winters.
