The cool wet weather persists on.  We will attempt to complete fairway aeration on Monday.  If it rains we will try again on Tuesday.  There may be some interference with morning golf but not much if Tuesday is the day.  The cool weather has slowed the turf growth down a bit which has been helpful.  Warm weather looks to finally arrive late next week.  We anticipate bringing some staff back the following week as the work load increases.

Our first fairway since April 17th.  Three weeks!

 

 

Greens were mowed for the first time since aeration on Monday and came out great.

 

 

The cool wet spring has been tough on the sycamores.  There is an abundance of anthracnose causing poor leaf growth.  Fortunately these trees are able to produce new leaves.

 

 

The new bed we developed last spring is quite a display.

 

 

Wildflowers are starting to bloom on the third hole. The other wildflower beds are struggling to get going and may need to be seeded again.

 

 

Mulching continues.

 

 

Hazard lines have been painted for the first time.
