Greens are Open

Today we opened the greens back up for the season. Yesterday we completed our aerification program for the spring and although it took a long time, I feel that it was well worth the extra effort aerifying them two times to get as much sand as possible into the top 2 inches. We also rolled them with an asphalt roller to smooth out any imperfections, this was most beneficial on 3,6 and 17 where we had to repair the drainage. 

Bunkers had been repaired this week but with the recent rains we are back to square one. They will be repaired next week and sand will be added for the season. We have a lot on our plate to prepare for the season so please bare with us and we look forward to seeing you out on the course.
