On The Course September 13th

Scarifying #7 fairway

 We are mowing and rolling greens this morning getting the course ready for member play and Ian Leonard's Bad Pants Open. Should be a great day for golf and great event. Ron and Bill are out on the fairway mowers and Dick is mowing the Executive Greens before he heads out to triplex approaches. The greens continue to improve each day and we are getting some good growth on them right now. There is a slight chance of some frost for tomorrow morning which will help with rag weed allergies. We have been using the mechanical rake in the bunker over the past week and will get back to hand raking bunkers for the weekend.

We will continue to work on fairway aerification next week and have made some progress this week. Tuesday, September 18th we are having a Grounds Committee meeting and will be conducting a course tour to look at several areas of the golf course. We will also be looking at getting a couple of irrigation or drainage projects done next week.

Greens are healing very well and will continue to improve going into the weekend.
