Course Conditions Update

Course status remains the same with walkers only & temporary greens for the weekend!!!

We finished with 1.6 inches of rain over the past two days which has left the course well past saturated once again.  The wet conditions has put a stop to the progress the course was making in preparation for opening but hopefully Mother Nature will bring us some good weather to help turn this spring into something closer to normal.


Behind 18 green you can see the saturated conditions that the rains have created.
We have seen some green up of the turf which is helping to decipher what turf areas will need TLC from the ice damage.  While the final game plan has yet to be decided; it is safe to say that some of the greens will be taken out of play and covered to speed up seed germination & recovery.

16 green
5 green & approach
9 green
Hopefully we can turn the corner and gain some soil temperatures to allow us to start the recovery process.  I will update course conditions & status next week and hopefully be able to deliver some good news.??????
