Golf Course Update

*The humidity and warmer temperatures in the last few weeks has led to an increased transition rate for the ryegrass in the rough on the South Course. While the bermudagrass will fill these thinnner spots naturally in some locations, we will continue to lay sod in the larger, more exposed areas to increase turf coverage.

*North Course conditions continue to improve as our irrigation system concerns have been mostly addressed. We are also currently installing new drainage in some low-lying areas to provide better water flow through the turf and soil. This allows for more effective results in creating overall product consistency.

*Tree encroachment in the teeing area has become more noticeable on the golf course. In the next few weeks we will be utilizing a maintenance service to alleviate this issue, mainly on the South Course.
