Drainage work

Recently we started to once again repair some areas around greens that are causing us problems. Below is a picture of some work we're currently doing alongside of #18 green in the rough edge.

Fortunately we have some drain boxes nearby and we should be able to clear up another soggy area next to a green.

Assistant Superintendent

Jay Geise

Jay has now been with us for a little over a year. Jay comes by way of the great state of Ohio. From an early age Jay loved the game of golf so when he graduated high-school he enrolled at Ohio State where he earned a Bachelors degree in Turfgrass Science and Plant Pathology. While in school he worked at Muirfield Village Golf Club where he experienced two Memorial tournaments. He also did two internships during his college work, one at the Plateau Club in Sammamish, Wa and the other at the Medinah Country Club in Chicago. He was involved with the construction there before the Ryder Cup was held in 2012. After school he took an assistants job at the Plateau Club where he was employed for three years. Since coming to Canterwood, Jay has been doing a great job of helping us provide great playing conditions on a consistent basis. Besides playing golf Jay loves to ski. Equally as important to him is Ohio State football and hanging out with his bulldog Natron.
