Where are your reporters now? Bide-a-Wee golf course was constantly in the news prior to the takeover by the city of Portsmouth. The course is deteriorating rapidly, seemingly due to the lack of management provided by the city, and is in the worst condition it has seen since 1967 when I first played there.
It's a great shame that no apparent grounds crew is working and that this potentially great facility is being wantonly neglected. Too bad it is no longer newsworthy.
