The golf course will officially open Tuesday, April 9th at 10:00 AM. The warmer weather over the last couple of days along with the .6"rain Monday morning settled the ground and allowed the golf course to green up.
There are a couple of things I would like to make note of as we open. First, we have only had one week of clean up following winter and spring flooding. Please be patient with as continue to perfect the course. Second, the decision was made to not cover the greens last fall. The reason behind this was to continue to promote the bent grass and not the poa. The greens came out of winter in great shape, but you will notice some stressed poa. This is OK as this was a goal for not covering. Also, the greens will play better sooner as we didn't get a surge of growth under the the covers.
I hope you get out and enjoy the course
