Warm Weather Soon!

Today I actually had to take my jacket off for the first time this year. We are expecting warmer temperatures to arrive starting this weekend and next week with some days in the 70's. This week we aerified and top dressed Tees as well as fwy top dressing. We are closing in on our Teaching Tee extension at the back of the Range, pictures next week. We have increased the Teaching Tee size to accommodate the Pro-shop when they teach. The original Tee was very small and at times could not grow grass fast enough. 

We are moving into our second phase of the Audubon Program here at the club. I would like to ask for your help on inventorying the wildlife that we have on the golf course. All I need is a picture taken of the wildlife and if you know exactly what it is to identify that as well. If you do not know the animal then I can look it up. This would be a tremendous help and the more eyes the better.

Greens have been mowed and rolled today for the first time this year, we expect them to start healing  with the warm weather that is on its way.

Top Dressing Tees

First Mow on the 3rd green, we kept our finger crossed not
to scalp. Remember, this was one of the greens we
repaired the drainage on.
