Golf Course Reminders As spring slowly creeps out of the long cold winter, golf season is getting into full swing. As we get started this season, our Arlington and Fairfax golf staff have a few reminders: • The no mow areas on the golf course are by design. They are not marked as hazards so any ball that enters a no mow area and is not found is a Lost Ball. While playing your round, if you stroke a ball into the no mow areas, please play a Provisional Ball to help with play pace. • Though the grass in the no mow areas is shorter during the spring, it is not intended for golf cart traffic. You may enter now mow areas in search of a ball, but please DO NOT drive golf carts into these areas. • Please observe the golf cart rules for the day. Every effort will be made to maintain the 90º cart rule as often as possible. However, when carts are restricted to paths, please keep all wheels on the paths. • The new fairways at Arlington are Patriot Bermuda grass. When taking a divot please fill the divot with sand. There is no need to replace the divot as it will die. In a few days, the grass will fill-in. • Please be sure to repair your ball marks on the green as a couple others at the same time. A properly repaired ball mark will keep our greens looking spectacular all season. WMGA - Senior Men’s ‘A’ Team The 2016 Washington Metropolitan Golf Association Senior ‘A’ Team competition matches will begin in April and continue into the first part of May for playoffs as needed.
