- GREENS - Mowed at .125" 3 times per week rolled 3 times until grass growth and demand dictates otherwise. TEES/COLLARS/APPROACHES Mowed at .325" 2 times per week. FWYS Mowed at .375" 2 times per week. ROUGH Will be cut in the coming weeks to clean up any winter debris and keep turf tight as needed.
- As of now, setup will be 2 times per week on greens and all accessories will remain off the course until further notice.
- Bunkers initially raked out during the week of 4/5/21. The initial cleanup redistributed sand, removed weeds, and cleaned winter debris. We will continue to address thin sand on floors and rake more as the transition continues. As of now, we will only touch up rake once a week on Fridays before the weekend play.
- Plant Protectant, Growth Regulator Applications, and all Pre-Emergent Applications applied to all shortcut turf, rough, range, and lawns. Our weekly application schedules will begin now that we are in the beginning of the actual growing season.
- Weeding, mulching, and pre-emergent applications will be made to landscape beds and will continue until completion. Flowers will be introduced to our beds around Mother's Day.
- All golf course irrigation, bathrooms, and tennis irrigation are on and any repair work will be made as soon as possible with as little impact on member experience as possible.
- All tennis courts re-surfaced and being rolled/groomed daily. During the week of 4/12/21 windscreens will begin to be hung up and detailed work will be completed as time allows.
- During the week of 4/19/21 driving range detail, mowing, and divoting will be made to have our practice areas ready for the season. The grass tee will be available 5/8/21.
- Needle-tine aeration to greens will begin bi-weekly across all our playing surfaces. We did not hollow core aerate any playing surfaces this spring so this practice will help aid in the benefits of core aerification until this fall.
Here we go Pine Hollow! The season is about to start cranking and I'd like to welcome all incoming members to the family and thank all the returning membership for their continued dedication to our Club. This has been quite the journey for all of us and with an exciting new business model combined with a vibrant membership our team is dedicated to making this rebound season one to remember. As we continue transitioning and making changes until the closing of the sale, I hope you feel the excitement permeating from our property as we lay the foundation for this year. You can also rest assured our management staff is working tirelessly to assemble the right team to prepare for today while building for our long-term success tomorrow and we know this may take time. We understand and acknowledge all aspects aren't currently to our standards but please give us the opportunity to get everything in place to generate a great club experience for you and your guests.
Around the property you will begin to see more detailed work addressed, golf course conditions improve, and the grounds start to come alive with the warmer spring weather. This is always an exciting time of the year and this spring we have an added element of excitement as we welcome new faces that haven't seen all our Club has to offer. In my 14 years at Pine Hollow I've seen every aspect of our property, and yet I still challenge myself to experience the day differently. Maybe this means spending more time at the tennis, a round of golf with a new member, walking thru the grounds wildlife watching. My point is we have so much to offer here and it's not all about the scheduled events, this is your property and we are here to help make this Club your sanctuary. You have my team's dedication to assisting in your experience and our department will do everything we can to exceed your expectations.
So please help support us thru this transition while we work out operations, don't forget to enjoy the small things life over the past year gave us a renewed perspective on, and enjoy every aspect of your experience here at home.
Yours For Better Turf,
Brent Peveich, GCS
