Good Morning,

 

This past week staff was able to clean out on the remaining landscaping beds. We used the landscape vacuum to remove the river rock and old mulch in all of these areas. This material had been in the landscaping beds for the past 24 years. It was necessary to use pickaxes to break up the ground before we could vacuum all of the material. This process was very time consuming and it's nice to have this step completed.

The next step in the landscaping renovation will be to remove all of the existing weed barrier, plant materials, and rocks. This will be followed by adding new soil into the beds. In the Spring of 2026 we will add all of the new plant materials. Staff will also be repairing the rock walls on the waterfall landscaping behind #10 green. The landscaping areas next to #2 tees and behind #18 green will be removed later this Fall.

Our fairways were fertilized a little over a week ago followed by nightly irrigation cycles. You can really see the difference in the turfgrass condition and color. We did not mow the fairways and tees for one week in order to let the fertilizer work into the soil profile. Staff mowed the fairways and tees multiple times on Thursday to get them back to normal playing conditions. They really looked great as we headed into the weekend.
