Course Maintenance Information

From the Superintendent...... 3rd Quarter NewsLetter 2010

Summer is here and it seems to be making up for last year. It is amazing how different this year has been compared to last year. But I would rather water than have heavy rain after heavy rain. I do want to thank you for being understanding that we need to water during the day as well as at night. It allows us to try our best to stay caught up and keep everything as green as possible.  

 I also want to thank everyone who voted in making us The Best of the Best in White County. I am glad that you are enjoying the course and I hope that this is the first of other awards to come. I know we are going to continue to try and improve the course in as many areas as we can. We will be verti-cutting the greens every few weeks as well as light top dressing them. Our next scheduled aeration is scheduled for August 30. We will be closing the course that Monday to complete all 20 greens. As most of you have noticed number four and five greens have made tremendous strides in recovering from this winter. To help speed up the process, we have started sodding bigger areas to help in recovery. We are doing our best to make the areas as smooth as possible. But it is going to take time for it to blend in and become unnoticeable. We will also and killing the weeds in the ponds in the coming weeks.  

Please drink plenty of water as you are playing. We do not need any of you getting to hot. Please continue to follow all signs around the course and keep the carts on paths around the tees and greens.  

Thanks to all of you for helping us maintain a great course.
