Dunes Greens Update


We are just about finished with all the construction to the Dunes greens. They should have everything ready for grass by middle of next week. The sod for the collars is scheduled for installation on Wednesday and sprigs are scheduled for the Friday after. We should have all construction and grass completed before July 4th week. Very exciting.

The Arroyo and Lakes greens are transitioning very well. The Lakes greens are probably about 7 to 10 days behind the Arroyo greens, but that was expected. The Arroyo greens have a year of maturity over the Lakes. Lakes #4 and #8 have some shade issues that we are dealing with. This is setting them back a little further than rest of the greens. We did go in and clean the trees on both of these holes that are causing the shade problems. This will definitely help.

Have a great day,

Damien

Department Heads participated in some cross training with Golf Course Maintenance to get an idea of what other departments are doing and how they operate.  Chef Jeff stole the show when he jumped on a Tee mower and started mowing like a seasoned pro.
