I know a few people are starting to wonder when the course will be open. It is a harder question to answer than some might think. We still have a few greens with ice and snow on them. This is not to say that 20-30 bunkers that still have ice, snow and water in them. The cold nights are really hurting the melting process, also. We have to be 100% free of ice and snow on greens before allowing play. We will continue to update the Golf Shop every morning as of the status of the course. Thanks for your patience.
Starting yesterday, the construction crew began sodding the 18th green complex. They have installed bentgrass for the fairway extensions, low cut bluegrass for the intermediate cut and turf type tall fescue for the rough. They also installed some fine fescue on the bunker edges. We plan to finish sodding by tonight but might need to purchase a small quantity more next week to fix some construction wounds.
