We have opened the course to golfers who would like to walk. Currently the conditions are very soft and the bunkers have not been raked or repaired from the winter disturbance. We brought back 3 crew members this week to begin picking up the course and will have some other crew returning on Monday April 7th. Our first goal is to clean debris off the greens and tee boxes. The turf has still not broke dormancy but there is a very slight green color beginning to show.
We have not mowed any areas at this time. Once we see the turf green up and begin to grow we will begin mowing. It should be in the next 7-10 days depending on the weather. Warmer temperatures and some sunny days will assist in getting the turf to "wake up." Hopefully we will see some better temperatures start to come our way soon!
Golfers can now follow me on Twitter. I will be using this social media to inform our golfing membership about course conditions, cart availability, course projects that may impact playability and other information. "Tweets" are very short and informative and will be done throughout the week. I would encourage you to follow me at: @amorris_andrew if you have a Twitter account and if you do not you can easily sign up for this free service. It is the best way to have the most up to date course information and stay informed as to what is happening on the course. As I said, Tweets will be one or two sentences in length so an extremely quick read.
Hope to see you out on the course and we will continue to evaluate course conditions in order to get carts out as soon as possible. It should not be too far off! Follow on Twitter at: @amorris_andrew for the most current course information.
See you on the course,
Andy
