Greens Aerification Monday

Course Closed Monday, April 29th



A reminder all greens will be core aerified on Monday, April 29th which will require closure of the entire golf course for the day.  In past years, full core greens aerification was eliminated.  The aerification process allows us to remove organic matter and provide healthier, firmer putting surfaces throughout the season.  Every year in the spring and fall we will be pulling cores and backfilling the open aerification holes with clean topdressing sand.  I expect to complete the process in 1 day with good weather conditions.  The full healing process should take 10-14 days with favorable weather to produce good growing conditions.
