The dogs chase the birds into the water and then returns immediately to their owners. This practice Is in place at many golf courses and is regarded to be safe for the birds. The volunteers are out regularly both on the small 9 and big 18. HOPEFULLY after about two weeks the birds will move on to a safer location. The course is NOT a dog park. Please do not allow your pets on the course at anytime . This is not playtime. Adopt a Green: Volunteers are needed. Everyday or so, an owner steps out on the course and fixes ball divots on their adopted greens. There are many YouTube videos on how to fix a ball mark. The starter shack has some ball mark repair tools for volunteers to use. Water Craft Volunteers: Presently there are volunteers tuning up our watercrafts so we can address the geese/water situation. Unfortunately, geese feces is a problem both on land and in the water. Recycle water from the ponds may contain both sand and feces. This water is used to water our beautiful course and common spaces. Need I say more? In the Air: ORPS is so fortunate to have an owner who is a certified pilot and drone operator. The Drone will be operated within strict guidelines. Flown 10 - 15 feet above the ground when at all possible and not over a persons private space or RV. Thank you for donating your talent and skill. It was amazing to watch this expert volunteer her services. We are looking into a Geese Deterrent System that will protect the health and safety of both the wildlife and Who knew how popular this event would be. This 9 and Wine had been shelved for many years and like a good wine was worth revisiting. Fun was had by all! Next Scheduled is booked for the Spring. Hope to be Bigger and Better. Our golf program is working to develop deals with large courses in the valley. Stay tuned. If you do not have a computer or a smart phone, you may turn your score card into the starter shack to post your to your handicap. Just be sure it has your full name, date and lot number. owners of ORPS. Fall 9 and Wine:
