Good afternoon,
I hope everyone is doing well and is having a great week!!
The maintenance team had another great week as we continue to work on getting the golf course in the conditions, we are all looking for. We continue to spray for weeds in the fairways and the roughs and hopefully eliminate them. They’ve also fertilized the golf course this week as we are still promoting positive growth for the golf course. We did receive close to 4.5 inches of rain this past week and the golf course has taken it great. We are close to being out of this rainy weather for a few days as the rain was needed for the golf course.
Next week we will needle tine the greens and will continue to fertilize the golf course wall to wall. We will also continue to spot spray for weeds and make sure that we are working on the elimination plan of the weeds.
Also, as some may have heard that Danny has resigned from Arlington Ridge Golf Club and his last day will be September 27th. It’s sad that he will be leaving us but at the same time we are very proud of all the hard work he has done in the past year to get ARGC in a better place today and for the future. We have a strong maintenance team in place, and we look forward to building on the progress from last year. I wish him great luck at his next venture and appreciate all the hard work.
We are getting close to FY 2025 membership sign ups. We will start having membership applications in the Golf Shop the last week of September as we are excited about the upcoming season and increasing our memberships for the year. We will be offering the same memberships as the previous year, and we will not have a seasonal membership in FY 2025. If anyone has any questions about the membership, please reach to me and let me answer any questions you may have.
Also, thanks to everyone that has came into the Golf Shop and have looked at some merchandise we have and also as I said, we will order what I can to make sure everyone has the products they need. I appreciate everyone for stopping by and checking in with the Golf Shop before playing so we know that everyone is here for the days round.
Tomorrow is the Tunnel to Tower Event, and we are very excited about this event and have 130 players and it’s an 8:30 shotgun start with Registration at Fairfax Hall starting at 7:00 am with breakfast at Fairfax Hall. I hope everyone plays well and has a great time.
