Cool and Frosty

9/22/2020

 
Last week's member member was a lot of fun for the grounds staff! It is always great when the weather cooperates and we can have the greens nice and slick. I hope that all the participates had a wonderful time, it was great to be a part of something normal in this unique year.

Greens
The greens are in fantastic shape. Despite all the challenging weather they came through the summer in great shape, and now we can really push them to create very firm and fast playing conditions this fall. We will continue to monitor greens speeds daily and adjust them to the needs of the players each day.

Tees
The tees have enjoyed this early fall immensely. They continue to shine on the course and our agronomy plan of multiple aerations will continue with one more aeration late this fall or early winter.

Fairways and Rough
2020 continues to throw curve-balls at us with multiple frosts before the end of summer. We had frost delays this past Sunday and Monday. With all this cool weather the team is continuing with repairs to rough and fairway worn out areas. Sod and seeding is being done all around the course. Including multiple greens complexes and areas of high traffic volume. 

Clubhouse Grounds
Fall plantings are going in around the clubhouse and banquet areas this week. It is always nice to have the entrances " gourd-ous"  for the fall. Mums and other fall annuals are being planted as well as fall displays of pumpkins, gords, straw and corn stalkes.

Thank you all for your continued support. Please feel free as always to contact  me with any questions or concerns.
