Course Update

We have been having some warm days yet most of the nights are still pretty cool so turf growth has been sporadic. We have planted the majority of the new trees to replace some of the trees we removed during the winter. I am waiting for some additional plant material to finish the area by the 1st tee but the nursery has not received their shipment yet. We have installed new irrigation on the right side bunkers of 8 green along with the mounding area between the clubhouse and 9 fairway.

 A couple of things about the weather, the ball washers will not be placed out until the threat of freezing temperatures is gone, a week from today temperatures will be in the 20's with a chance of snow. The weather system forecasted for next week coincides with our aeration days so it will be a waiting game to see how much we can get finished depending on the hand mother nature deals us. The divot buckets will be placed out on the tees following the aeration the tees next week. We have received the permit for the fence behind 5 green, work will start on that project tomorrow. Spring is a funny season perfect golf weather one day with frigid and snowy weather the next. We have a full crew now and we will be completing as much maintenance everyday based upon the weather.
