Here we go again...

As I sit here and write this, it seems that I can’t get on the same page as Mother Nature this year. Rain, again, and again, and probably again. BUT no snow.... So that means projects with the staff this time of the season.

Completed:

• Edging of the bunkers
• Solid tine aeration of tees and fairways
• Needle tine aeration of all the putting surfaces
• Tree trimming and removal on the 14^th hole near the tee box, should have done this years ago…
• Tree removal near the 6^th green, much improved airflow.
• Fertilization of the putting surfaces
• Pre-emergent weed control of the roughs and deep rough
• Through cleaning of the shop.
• Resurfacing of the tee markers

All the playing surfaces have been mowed at least twice, and the green a half dozen or so times.

We are planning a heavy topdressing in the near future, weather permitting.

Chipping green is open, along with hitting off the grass on the range.
