Weekly Update

With the unexpected warm weather this week, the maintenance staff has had to switch gears; we’ve started mowing more frequently than normal for this time of year and we've also started to water by hand.

Some other tasks that will be worked on this week are:

  • Cattail removal

  • Top-dressing the greens

  • Growth regulator and fungicide application on the greens

  • Fairway coloring

  • Spiking roughs

  • Bunker edging

  • Cart path and leaf clean-up

  • Cart path edging

  • Finish painting 16 bridge, and 17 tee rails
The steps on 3 and 13 have been painted as well as 18 bridge.


If you haven't noticed, the sand bottles on the tees are gone as it has been decided that the maintenance staff will fill divots on the tees daily with sand, seed, and compost.
