2024, for renewal 2027
The environmental initiatives at the Old Course Vilamoura demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainability. The investment in a new pump station to reduce energy consumption highlights a proactive approach to resource efficiency. Additionally, the ongoing pine management program reflects the club’s dedication to preserving local biodiversity and fostering long-term ecological health. I am confident that the club will continue supporting nature, conserving resources, and strengthening the community, and I look forward to witnessing further progress in these areas in the future.”
