Fall Update

The golf season is starting to slow down, but the Grounds Staff and I continue to forge ahead with a continued sense of urgency to complete many tasks before the rain turns to snow. Some of the current initiatives include:

• Championship tee construction on # 7, with a target completion date around Thanksgiving

• Deeptine aeration and topdressing of the greens

• Winterization of the irrigation system
• Annual bulb planting for the spring
• Leaf clean-up across the entire grounds
• Late fall fertilization of the roughs
• Herbicide applications to all rough areas
• Final fungicide applications to the to greens and tees
• Final mowing of all playing surfaces

Reminders-

• Due to the freezing temperatures the bathrooms on the golf course are closed and winterized for the season
• Please check with the Proshop for frost and freeze delays
• For daily updates on course conditions follow us on Twitter @pobrienhpgcc

Thank-you,
