Good afternoon,
I hope everyone is doing well and was safe during the storm and no one had any damage.
The maintenance team had a successful week. They continued to spray for weeds and fertilize the golf course as we continue to work on the conditions of the course as we are getting close to growing season coming to an end. We also spent some time working on the greens as that is a big focus to make sure we are getting ventilation in the greens to promote positive growth.
This upcoming week we plan on continuing to work on the greens and spraying for weeds as we continue to make sure that the team has a solid plan to get the golf course in the direction we all want. This past week we had the VP of Science and Agronomy on property, and he spent the entire day driving the property and he is coming up with a new plan to work on the areas we’ve discussed. He will be here again on Monday as we have some interviews set up to find the right person for superintendent at Arlington Ridge. He can’t be here daily, and we do talk on a daily basis to make sure his plan is getting done and we will also have other Troon Superintendents on property to assist as well.
We are very committed to getting this golf course in the best shape we can and will continue to work together to get to that level.
Another successful week as well in the Golf Shop as we continue to put new product out on the floor and have another Taylor Made Demo Day for October 17th . We will have the link to reserve your spot up by end of weekend. Also, glad we got the first round of the Arlington Cup in yesterday and they had great weather today. Final round is tomorrow with the blue team leading by 5 points… Watch the Red team make its move tomorrow.
