Mace Meadow Golf Course

slide3.pngAmador County – A fire broke out in a golf cart shed at Mace Meadow Golf Course & Country Club Tuesday night in Pioneer, damaging several golf carts. Fire and emergency personnel responded to a call around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday to Mace Meadow, at Highway 88 and Fairway Drive. When fire fighters arrived on the scene, the building was in flames and a wildland fire reportedly was eminent. A witness said quick action by firefighter crews from the Amador Fire Protection District and the California Department of Fire Protection prevented any spread to the wildland. The fire was contained to the cart shed in which dozens of golf carts were being stored. Several of the 56 golf carts were damaged. Once the flames were knocked down, firefighters had to remove all of the golf carts from the building to fully extinguish the fire. Firefighters were still investigating the cause of the fire, and no dollar value had been assessed of the damages resulting from the fire.
