Turf Care

 
To all members,
 
As the season approaches, we are starting to get excited in the Turf Care Department for the melt to begin. It has been a very mild winter, with a lot of unusual weather. When I was outside, just for a few minutes, on Feb. 2, it was a beautiful day, definitely could see my shadow, but it was also +3 C, so it was hard to predict when spring was going to start, but my guess is around the middle of March like every other year, with a few day cold snap in April.  My prediction for opening day this year is  Friday, April 20^th  but as you all know, the Turf Care Department can be bought (for earlier tee times).  We will be working hard to have the Golf Course open as soon as possible.  
 
I would like to invite all applications, for those wanting to work in the turf care department, to get them in as soon as possible.  There are always a few positions open every spring.  Most require little experience, as training is provided. Starting hours are early but also end early in the day.
 
The Turf Care Department is in need of some construction materials, both wood and steel, a small want list would include, fence posts, rough or finished lumber lengths, steel piping 2-4” lengths, flat steel of any size, etc.  These items are to be used in facility and equipment repair, renovations and improvement projects for the club.
