By now, you probably have noticed the new fairway expansion grassing lines. We’ve been slowly lowering the height of cut on these areas for the past 3 weeks, and are at a height that is now easily noticeable. These grassing lines are part of the Master Plan, which is bringing back the original Seth Raynor […]

Question Page
This page will be designed to ask any question you may have. It might be about the Master Plan, or it could be about something you’ve seen or heard, that you’d like clarity on. Whatever question or comment comes to mind, this is the place for it! So I’ll start with a common question that […]

It’s been a roller coaster winter, and just like we didn’t want, a few extra weeks of it. But Wednesday at 10:00, we can put all of that behind us, and kick off the season. The weather looks great, I hope you can join us! If you haven’t already heard, this winter was a tough […]

Update on the Centennial Bridge On Monday, Hartman Construction poured the floor of the bridge. A pump truck was brought in to reach the 55 foot span of the bridge, and now, the concrete will be left to cure for a week until it’s ready for stone to be adhered to it. This process went […]

It’s been 2+ months since the golf course has closed, wow! Our department may have had the busiest late fall season I can remember. The goal of keeping the course open as long as possible, then complete as many technical projects before the ground freezes up, mirrors the craziness of a quick spring snow melt […]

We are actually further than mid-way through winter, for the record! Our department has been cranking out projects and normal routine maintenance. Some of these will have a noticeable impact upon first seeing them, some of them will go unnoticed. It’s the sum of all the effort that make up our goal of constant progress […]
