Reminder

 

 

 

 

The golf course will be closed next week, June 3-7, for scheduled maintenance.  The itinerary for next week includes our first greens aerification and our annual Curfew treatment.  The greens aerification will consist of 1/2 inch coring tines with the removal of the existing material.  The process is completed with topdressing(new sand) being incorporated into the canopy and profile to dilute the thatch and organic layer.  We will follow the aerification with a fertilizer application to start the healing process. 

 

 

 

Curfew is a soil fumigant that controls Plant Parasitic Nematodes.  Nematodes are microscopic pests that feed on our root system.  The product is "slit injected" into the soil for optimum control.  The tees, fairways, driving range and a few other selected areas will be treated.  It is important to note, this treatment comes with a 24 hour re-entry period.  The Curfew will be applied on Wednesday June 5th.  All traffic is to remain off the the golf course until the morning of June 7th.  Signs will be posted at all entry points. 

 

 

Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to a productive summer of maintenance leading to improved conditions for the Fall.
