Another wet one

The Sun just teasing us

It was another difficult wet week with an additional 1.5" inches of rain. Fortunately we have dried out enough to have golf carts on Friday and through this weekend. We were once again unable to accomplish many projects on the golf course and it was difficult to keep up with the mowing. 

Trimmed bunker face on #4

We were able to mow some rough, and get the bunker faces trimmed and edged. Fairways were mowed twice this week, and most recently on Friday. We are looking forward to a more consistent weather pattern in order to provide more consistent conditions. Have a great weekend, Happy Mothers Day!

A Wet Week

#14 Fairway with standing water and flood debris

It was a pretty slow and wet week, we received just over four inches of rain for the week and that was after the snow had melted. Needless to say there was not much that was accomplished on the golf course. We were unable to get to any of the pending projects and we were able to do very little mowing.  

All standing water has gone down, and we do not think at the moment that there will be much damage done to #14. Our staff worked diligently to pump water, and clean any flood debris during the week. This weekend you will see us trying to get fairways mowed and some of the rough, while also trying to avoid a very busy golf schedule. 

Expect fairways to be shaggy and the rough to be, well, "rough". We appreciate your understanding as we play catch up over the next couple of weeks.
