Good afternoon,
I hope everyone is having a great week and has stay warm as we have dealt with this unusual cold weather for Florida this winter. The good news is we will be back to our normal 70-to-75-degree weather all next week…
With this weather the Maintenance team didn’t work a lot this week, but they did continue to finish projects we had planned for this winter:
- Continue to mulch areas on the golf course
- Worked on cart paths
- Still try to work the bumpy areas to try to make them smoother for golf carts
We did top-dress all the greens this week to help keep them warm as the past two (2) mornings have been really cold and we want to protect them.
Next week Todd is going to start with some of the pre-emergent programs he has in place and with the weather we have coming hopefully we can get a little growth and start to green up. I know Todd is excited about having some warmer weather and gives him an opportunity to get some more work done and make the golf course continue to get better.
With this weather as most of you know it’s been really slow this week and haven’t had many rounds or many people visit the Golf Shop.
Unfortunately, we did have to postpone the Mixed Couples event until February 8th, and I have opened the website to try to get more signups for the event as of today we only had 20 players…
Please stop by the Golf Shop and take a look at some of the new product that has arrived new Adidas shirts, new shoes and we have some more new product coming in as well.
