GOLF GOLF COURSE MAINTENANCE
The turf is now growing at over 90% of its peak growth potential and will require our full efforts to keep up with maintenance. This is also the period where we perform our aggressive summer cultural practices.
On Monday, May 19, the North Course closed and will reopen on Monday, July 28. We aim to accomplish a great deal during this closure. We will be aggressively vertical mowing and aerating all surfaces. This helps reduce thatch build up, promote new growth, and healthier turf. There will be multiple rounds of these practices that occur followed by heavy sand applications to further dilute organic matter and promote firmer, healthier playing surfaces. In total, we will create over a quarter billion holes, remove over 200 cubic yards of organic material, and apply 1000 tons of sand on the North Course! Additionally, there will be selective weed control, sodding, and a healthy amount of bunker sand adjustments. Our goal will be to accomplish the bulk of the practices in the first seven weeks of the closure. The final three weeks will be for healing the turf and working on details in preparation for re-opening the course on July 28, 2025. Additionally, we will be aerifying the back tee on the South end of the range and the North tee during the first closure. While the North Course is closed, the South Course will accommodate our daily play. There will be minor practices that will be on-going through the summer, but we will leave major tasks for the closure period. On-going practices that will occur are selective applications of organic fertilizers and compost to traffic areas. This will encourage better soil and, in turn, turf health now and into the future. There will be a focus on selective weed control and general maintenance on the South Course leading to its closure period beginning in July. GOLF OPERATIONS HOLIDAY PLAY
