Golf Course Maintenance Update


Despite the cold and wet weather we've been having, the golf course maintenance crew has been busy finishing up some work on holes # 3 and #5. We've recently had stumps removed and completed some ground leveling. Our goal  is to continue to smooth out the ground and develop turf in both of these areas.


#5 Stump was removed and leveled off


Below are pictures of the area to the left of #3 tee. The area is getting prepped for seeding this spring. 



In addition to preparing these areas for seeding we have been busy edging the cart paths next to greens and tee complexes. This is very time consuming and difficult work, mostly done with a small edger and shovels. Once completed in these areas,we will be moving on to the fairway portions of the paths. 






Our next project will be putting in drainage in the middle of #5 fairway. We are targeting the landing zone at about the 150 yard marker and going up to about even with the fairway bunker on the left. This is expected to start next week Monday the 13th of January.
