Storm Damage

The rain and storm events from yesterday dropped 1 inch of rain coupled with lots of debris from the trees. The 6th hole was the most effected with three treesfalling down on the right of the hole. The White Pines lost many of their pine cones littering the bunkers, greens, and fairways. The cone droppings are just another addition to a long list of why White Pines do not belong on a golf course. The positives are the work done over the years on the trees, drainage, and aeration gave us the opportunity to play the 1st round of the club championship with only a half hour delay this morning. The crew did a great job to get the course playable but there will be alot of clean-up to do on Tuesday.
