June 16-17 Storm Damage

Below are just a few of the pictures I took from the storm that rolled through on the evening of June 16th.  FCO was hit with 2+ inches of rain along with 60-80 mph winds.  We lost a few trees that uprooted/snapped in half along with another 8-10 trees that will need to be removed due to extensive damage.  Drefs Tree Service got on property on Friday (23rd) to clean up the large trees and they are scheduled back in a few weeks to start cleaning out trees that have 'hangers' in them.  

I want to recognize my crew for their hard work to get the course cleaned up and playable WITHOUT shutting down the course.  Tee times were NOT even delayed on Saturday morning, so great work (like always) by my team!  Thank you to the membership for playing around my crew as we worked to get it cleaned up!  

Summer Grind

It's that time of year where the majority of Andy's time is spent checking and watering greens.  We use moisture meters throughout the day to monitor moisture levels in the greens profile.  This tool allows us to keep the greens at consistent percentages and takes the guess work out of the equation.  Weather pending, we're keeping the greens as consistent as possible on day to day basis.  So far, so good!
