Aradale Golf Club president Brian Richards said it was "really disappointing".

"Although there was nothing taken, I reckon it would be around $500 worth of damage," he said.

"After we finished playing golf there was one of our members out there until 5:30pm and there was nothing done then.

"My wife and I came up to tidy up and I noticed the two sheds open and I said I needed to have a look at the club house and that was when I saw the box taken off the wall.

"It would have taken some effort to take the green fee box off the wall because it is about three foot in length and two foot high and about a foot and a half in diameter."
