Very good video regarding Tree Management Programs around fine turf areas of the course from the USGA.

Interesting story on golf courses and water usage
The following story was on the golf channel a few months ago regarding golf courses and water usage on the west coast. This story is playing out all over the country as sustainability of clubs and its management of resources are continuing to be evaluated.

Great weather, come see us.
Not bad on Friday but above normal mid-50's on Saturday. Come out and see us. Cleaning up leaves that fell after snows of the last couple of weeks. Course is looking good!

Course Closed Sunday Dec 22nd
The course will remain closed due to wet conditions. The course received 1" of rain which was very much needed to bring the moisture levels up in the soil. Low moisture levels in winter can lead to drier conditions like we had for the season of 2012 which could contribute to monster water bills! It can also lead to damage to turf, trees and ornamental plantings due to low levels of moisture in plants and severe cold.

Ditto from Friday, Course remains closed
Not a difficult call to make this morning with rain predicted all day, the course and practice areas will remain closed all day on Saturday, December 21st.

Course/practice area remain closed
Due to severely wet conditions, all golf facilities will be closed on Friday, Dec 20th. Range balls will plug in the mud and greens are foot printing and bringing up moisture when walked upon. With no drainage lines in our greens, limited evaporation potential, and slippery playing conditions on all other surfaces of the course, the proper choice is to keep the facilities closed. We are sorry for any inconvienence this creates for you.
