Spring Tease

Well, last Sunday was just a sample of what is to come. Snow melted, the sun came out, and it got to around 60 degrees. Now it's Thursday, cold, and again... snow. We are trying to get a few things done during this winter season on the days when we can actually get out on the course. We just started adding a new irrigation line to #4 ladies tee and replacing some vavles that went bad on us last year. We went back and took a closer look at the trees and found a couple more that need to come out due to safety issues. Hopefully we can work out a schedule with Louis Miller and Golf Development to get his crew back in here to finish up #17 & #18 next month. After that it will be just a matter of raising some money to complete the new #3 green complex. Getting this done will able us to redo #6 bunkers and the front part of #6 green as well as expanding the back part of #15 green. I hope you all will come out in support and play in our "Keep it Green" event on April 3rd. This event will hopefully raise some money to help get #3 project going. Thanks to everyone for their continued support and we'll see you at the course.

More snow and rain

I don't think the weather can make up it's mind right now. We get snow, then rain, then snow, then rain. Of course now, it's both. But it's winter time and it gives us the opprotunity to stay home, be with family and relax before the summer gets busy. I hope all of you enjoyed a great Super Bowl, except for the halftime show. March Madness is upon us along with the SEC tournament. As for the golf course, it is winterizing with all the snow. It has giving us time to improve the maintenance facility in areas where we can organize and work better. Everyone please be safe out of the roads and we look forward to a spring that is just around the corner.
