GOLF COURSE UPDATE 4/6/22

• MOWING HEIGHTS - 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.
• BUNKER CLEANOUT/SAND - All golf course and practice bunkers have been raked out once. We will now begin raking bunkers weekly and keeping disturbed surfaces touched up. New sand will be added to bunkers throughout the season where necessary in bunkers not being renovated this spring.
• TEE MARKERS/GOLF COURSE ACCESSORIES - All golf course accessories have returned to the golf course including tee markers, bunker rakes, select ball washers, etc.
• GOLF COURSE CONSTRUCTION - McDonald and Sons are currently working on  #12 Black to #14 Tee Complexes. These new tee grounds will be expanded and shifted away from #13 green. The next phase of work will take place once the tees are complete on approximately nine holes of greenside bunkers. All existing sand and subsurface will be excavated from our bunkers, drained/regraded, lined using the Better Billy Bunker System, and lastly new sand will be added.
• TENNIS COURT UPDATE - All courts have been reconditioned as of this week with new nets and lines, received 2 tons of Har-Tru per court, and rolled for the first few times. All windscreens will be installed in the coming weeks and our plan is to have a few courts fully open by next weekend.
• PICKLEBALL / PADEL UPDATE - Work is currently being scheduled for the construction of these courts on what was Court #6. We have secured our contractors and will be doing our best to expedite the construction process. This will be a game-changer for us within the Tennis Program and should be very attractive for us building on our great program.
• SPRING AERATION - Unfortunately with the frozen grounds last week and wet weather washing away most of this week we have postponed aeration. I will be modifying the process and now only solid tine playing surfaces throughout April. This process will have little to no impact to our golf.
