GRANBY, Mass. (WWLP) - The snow can be pretty, but it has caused big problems at the Westover Golf Course. The roof on the maintenance building partially collapsed Thursday.
Marc Gauvin, the Superintendent of the Westover Golf Course, told 22News that they have cleared the snow from the end of the roof to prevent water dams, but they did not expect what happened Thursday to happen.
“The mechanic called me and said the roof collapsed, that there was a terrific noise, one of the doors blew open, a cloud of dust blew into the maintenance area and he evacuated the building,” Gauvin said.
The collapse caused damage on the inside of the building as well.
Gauvin said that they could be looking at thousands of dollars in damage.
