June 15th



It's setting up to be a nice couple of days leading into Fathers' Day weekend.  It got down to single digits last night with temps down to 9 degrees.  Today Environment Canada is calling for it to be sunny with a high 27. UV index 8 or very high. Tonight it will be a low of 14 and mainly sunny and 29 on Saturday.

Golf carts ARE PERMITTED today.  Please scatter cart traffic to avoid wear of the turf and use cart paths where provided whenever possible.  Stay back 30 yards from green surrounds indicated by white lines.  Remember to repair ball marks as the greens are a little softer after this week's aeration.

Divot bottles can be used on fairways, tees and rough this season
This year when filling divots, you can use divot bottles everywhere on the course including the rough.  We have switched the seed to chewings fescue which makes both a great fairway and rough grass!

Rough on the back 9 will be sprayed today with Killex for weed control of clover and dandelions.

Greens will be topdressed lightly on Tuesday morning next week (June 19th) to smooth out any remaining depressions from this week's aeration.

Tee times go back to 7am next week with the official start of the summer season.  There will be 8am shotguns on Monday and Wednesday prior to the afternoon Mens' and Ladies' Day events.

Have a great weekend!
