Mallard Creek looks to rebuild after its clubhouse burns

Mallard Creek Golf Course in Lebanon is reeling this winter after its clubhouse burned down. The fire in the clubhouse was so intense, firefighters took a defense approach, meaning no crews were allowed inside to battle the flames.

An electrical malfunction in a circuit breaker in an upstairs electrical panel caused the fire that caused $1.3 million damage.

The golf course, about 90 minutes south of downtown Portland, was open for business later in the day. Their temporary office is in an RV park.

The 3-alarm fire was under control by 2 a.m. and mostly out by 7:55 a.m., the fire department said.
