Course Amenities: From Fake to Natural...





Benches Before
The Process.....
Stained and Sealed.....






Final Look of New Benches
This winter, the maintenance department is working on upgrading our course amenities (i.e. benches, rope/stakes, ballwashers, bunker rakes, yardage post, etc.) in effort to give the course a 'natural' look and feel.  With the historic tradition at FCO, I felt that this would be a nice touch and would give us a different look then the other clubs in Omaha. We are eliminating plastic and converting everything to natural wood.  Some of the conversions are difficult and require a lot of hand work and detail to finish.  We are well on our way to making the changes and here are some examples of what you'll see on the course next season.

  1. You need to do 400 more rakes and send them to Staley Farms Golf Club in Kansas City. Way to go. Those are awesome.
