| Hole #15 |
It feels like it has been weeks since we have seen some sun. There was no real point in updating this blog for the past few weeks as it was the same old story with clouds, rain, and no carts. We have carts today and hopefully through the weekend.
This past week we received 1.35" of rain, the 1" overnight on Tuesday was a pretty big set back as it came down hard and fast, washing all of the bunkers, even the greens sides that have the liners.
Staff has done a great job if hanging in there, through all these rains and storms and by the end of the day Friday we should have all the bunkers put back together.

We have spent the better part of the week getting caught up on mowing all of the rough and routinely mowing all of our playing surfaces. We have even had the opportunity to mow the new sod in the drainage areas down to fairway height.

It will take a couple of weeks for this sod to fully mature to its new height, and grow out of the little bit of scalping that took place.

Once it is mowed up the golf course is looking pretty good, hopefully the weekend rain misses us and we can get back to focusing on detail type tasks. We appreciate your support and thank you for your patience through this wet spring.
Respectfully,
Nick Marfise
Golf Course Superintendent
