Grounds Update

Towards the end of last week there were a few greens that experienced some drought stress. Yes, we've recently received some significant rainfall but greens are built to drain quickly. Irrigation on these stressed greens most likely occurred just a few hours too late. A program has been put into place to promote recovery. What doesn't readily recover will be repaired following aerification.

Speaking of aerification, the golf course will be closed August 18th thru August 21st for the second of two aerifications this summer. Greens, tees and surrounds will be aerified and the fairways will be verticut. While not popular amongst golfers, aerification is a necessary practice for maintaining a healthy golf course. The golf course will reopen August 22nd for play. Please expect a couple of weeks for full recovery.

Finally, due to the significant rainfall the past few weeks we have been "cart path only" several days. As a result it appears that there are a few more unfilled divots than normal. It would be greatly appreciated if you would take the time to fill any divots you may come across. Thanks!
