Overflowing Rain Gauge....7.4" Total!

On Sunday morning the rain started and it didn't wrap up until Monday at 4 pm!  At the course we got a total of 7.4" of rain throughout that time.  Overall, the course took it well, but obviously we have some wet pockets throughout the property.  With the cooler temps for the remainder of the week, the grass is going to explode which should help any summer scars heal as we head into fall.  Mother Nature strikes again!

Tail End of Summer/Losing Staff

We are officially at the tail end of the summer months.  Days are noticeably getting shorter and nights should start cooling down in the coming weeks.  My staff has done an awesome job keeping the course in great shape but unfortunately we lose every single one of them in the next week.  All but the core guys (Andy, Austen & Bill) will be heading back to school which leaves us trying to replace the entire maintenance staff for the remainder of the season.  It'll be all hands on deck for the next month as we train the new guys over the coming weeks.  Tip of the cap to the crew we had this season...awesome work!
