Fertilization

Last week we received close to 2 inches of much needed rainfall causing us to postpone the scheduled fertilization of tees and fairways until Monday April 15th.

Course Fertilization

We are scheduled to fertilize all Tees, Fairways and Greens Surrounds next Tuesday and Wednesday (April 2/3). To avoid shutting down the entire course we will have the back 9 open on Tuesday and the Front 9 available on Wednesday..

Thanks for your support and we look forward to seeing you on the course!

Greens Aerification

As we gear up for Spring, we will start with the first of two aerifications. This is scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday 3/12-13. To ensure a speedy recovery we have been fertilizing the greens to promote more growth and will be using the smaller tines this first time around. Any questions please let us know and we look forward to seeing you on the course.

New Bunker Rakes!

Just received a new shipment of new bunker rakes with the extended 6 foot handles that many of you have suggested. I anticipate another shipment soon and the conversion from the shorter rakes will be complete.

Free Firewood!

The Back 9 tree trimming project has resulted in an abundance of firewood looking for a good home. Please contact Scott at scott.fuller@ourclub.com for free wood.

Its Been A Busy Winter!

The mild Winter has allowed the GC Maintenance Team to accomplish a lot more than usual. Several sections of cart paths have been repaired, every tree on the Back 9 has been pruned and the entire property has been treated for Spring weed control. In addition we have spent a significant amount of time redistributing sand in ALL bunkers to ensure appropriate depths throughout.

Also we have had feedback regarding pin placements. We have re-visited this with the GCM staff and stressed the importance of pin locations. We promise to improve!

We look forward to the upcoming year and would really like as much as feedback as possible from all of you. Please help us use this blog to better communicate all Golf Maintenance issues. We look forward to hearing form you.

Greens Aerification

All greens have been aerified and are recovering nicely. Following this procress we received 1/2 inch of rain and another 2 inches this morning. In addition the entire course was fertilized prior to the rainfall which was a huge win for us all!
