Sorry for the lack of updates over the past month or so as we’ve been busy keeping up with the perfect growing conditions. Our college help has been gone a month or so now, which means we’ve had to adjust to the decrease in man power.
Our greens aerification has been delayed until mid October so we can offer a longer uninterupted playing season for our membership. The greens are playing well overall, and we’re happy with the progress that “the 5″ have made since their inauspicious start in April.
Holes 3, 6, 8, & 17 are undergoing drainage installation. The theory behind this installation is to eliminate the ability for water to accumulate on the putting surface, which caused the damage we suffered last winter/ spring. This project should be completed in a week or so, and the subsequent topdressing/ watering/ and other aftercare should be minimally invasive and last the rest of the season.
I’ll try to get some pictures up soon. This is surely the best time to work and play on a golf course in New England! Take care, happy golfing, and as always ask us any questions you may have.
See you on the course,
The Keepers
