We will be preparing for Irene today and Saturday on the golf course. We have already had both of our fuel tanks filled and have filled all the equipment with fuel. The chainsaws are ready and the blowers have been checked. I will pressure down the irrigation system and turn off the pumps over the weekend. The reason for this is in the event a tree falls it could damage an irrigation pipe in the process thus causing large amounts of water to leak onto the golf course. The flagsticks will be brought in on Saturday night to prevent them from flying away if we do receive high winds. Hopefully this is all for not but we will be prepared and will begin the clean-up as soon as Irene leaves the area.
The 8th green will partially be reopened on Saturday. The sod that is roped off should not be walked on for any reason. There will be two drop areas, one in the front and one in the rear of the green, that you are to use to avoid the sod. It will be a few weeks until we can play on the new sod so please be patient and respect the ropes so we can have a great putting surface for the fall season..
