Course Update

The Team has been busy battling the growth of the rough this week. They were able to mow all 60 acres twice and removed clippings from the playing surfaces. Our Team worked from sun up to sun down all week. Great Job Team!

We have also been able to work on some projects on the practice green and the nursery. One of the practice greens was damaged from the winter. We re-evaluated the use of this green and decided to create more chippable area.

The South nursery project has also started. This is not a new nursery, but we are preparing it for a new grow-in. The nurseries are so important for us to be able to do all our course repairs and renovations in-house. The nursery will have turf for greens, tees, fairways, bunker faces and rough areas.
