A few of our winter projects.....

     The winter time provides the golf maintenance staff with a little more time to work on projects as the demand for mowing, irrigation and course upkeep is not as high mainly due to lower temperatures (although it is 74 degrees outside as I write this!!).
     Each summer we begin a list of projects we would like to accomplish during the winter and begin to prioritize as we near fall. The "list" is ongoing and will never be without a hundred different ideas and projects as we continue to try to improve our product for our customers. So in the next few pictures I will try to highlight a few of the projects you may or may not have seen us working on these past couple of months.

Happy (Belated) New Year!!!

So it's a little after new years and I'm finally posting again on the blog. Since my last blog in November, the maintenance staff has gone through a whirlwind of weather circumstance but come through it all to now possible having to water soon. The month of December brought us 4.84" of rain and a few frosty mornings while the month of January started out wet and has turned into some of the most beautiful weather we've had in the last couple of months. I hope that those of you that are local have been playing alot as conditions and weather couldn't be better.
 In the next few days I will be posting some pictures of the projects we have been working on over the last couple months. But before I do that I wanted to post a picture of my crew and publicly let them know that I am very proud to have all of them and the accomplishments that we as a team have made in the last couple of years. I am also very excited to have this team as we move into the new year with new challenges. Thanks again guys!
