The 2019 golf season is in the books.  Overall it was a very successful year for the golf course.  The Monday half day closure was a big bonus and we hope you noticed some of the improvements that occurred.  Thanks to the membership for your understanding through this change.  Anytime change occurs we all know there is a period of adjustment.  We didn't always quite get it right and there were some occasional blips due to the weather.  We will continue to make this an overall win for everyone!

 

 

Prepping the greens for some golf and our final fungicide application of the season to prevent winter disease.

 

 

Josh applying two fungicides and a growth regulator to the 5th green to prevent annual bluegrass seed head development in the spring. Research has shown an application of Proxy growth regulator at this time in conjunction with spring applications gives better results than spring applications alone.  Winter covers will be placed on greens 3,4, and 5 as early as next week to protect these greens from cold temperature damage.

 

 

Can you say better late than never?  We are finally installing pipe to drain a wet area below the clubhouse.  Once completed we will enlarge the garden and provide Francesco with more fresh vegetables.

 

 

This pipe was installed underneath the blacktop to carry the water into the storm drain at the swimming pool.
