 Today we verticut the greens, so they may be rolling a three. Verticutting is the process of cutting vertically into the green to promote horizontal growth, reduce grain, and reduce thatch. Last week we cross shatter tined (see below) the greens. That process of aerification allows the soil profile to vent, which allows proper gas exchange, reduction in hydrophobic soils, and an increase in pesticide efficacy during times of heat stress.  |
 |
| The HydroPaths on 4 and 7 are almost completed. Next week we will be adding soil more soil and sodding the areas Thanks to everyone who supported the Greenskeeper Revenge last year, which funded these projects. |
 |
| #16 and #1 tees are now complete. The Zoysia is rooting in nicely but the fescue takes a little longer. These tees should be ready for play by next weekend. |

| #16 tees have been sodded with Zoysia. We will soon sod the surrounding areas with fescue. |
 |
| #1 men's tee has been completely resodded with Zoysia. Its rooting in very well and should be open in a couple of weeks. I would like to thank Mr. Florence and Mr. Ward for their funding, installation and weekly upkeep of the roses at the men's and women's tees. Further in the summer we will be installing stone paths. |
 |
| Stone curbing was installed around the putting green and we will continue to dress up other problem areas during the year. |
 |
| The HydroTurf has been installed behind #7 green and we will soon begin installing it at #4 path. This is a great addition to the course and was funded by the 2015 Greenskeeper Revenge. |
