Metrolink Project, first mowing of the fescue on #1

The first mowing of the fescue along #1 fairway took place this morning.  We used a push mower to mow the area between the new fairway and the fence which has now been installed completely.  There is a hole in the fence on the green end so that we do some maintenance on the new fescue on the other side of the fence.  There is no access to the sod except over the fence which is not practical.  It is important to us that the turf get established completely so it can survive the summer heat and stress.  We will not place a large area mower on the area until the turf has fully established and the soil can handle the large mower.
