Nearing the finish line!

The last 15 months have been a challenge for the HP Grounds team with managing a golf course in the midst of a major renovation and throw in some of the most difficult weather conditions to grow turf, we learned a lot. Thanks to the team for their help, patience and persistence through the entire process. Our management team, led by Dan Lawendowski, Bryan Miller, Arron Garrett, and Bobby Schenkel went above and beyond on a daily basis to assist, guide and grow. It was a team effort, we had tremendous support from the membership and Legacy committee; Eric OBryan, Nick Spadacini and Jake Conger were instrumental in the success, without their guidance and diligence the end result would not of been this good. Thanks for all your help!

Over the coming weeks we have several tweaks to the site, we are very pleased with the practice area, and all the new turf, and yes! it will be ready for the 2019 season

 

Some items on our list include:

  • Small drainage projects
  • Additional sod and landscape plants
  • Fence construction
  • Grounds equipment storage building construction (we are excited to get thousands of dollars of equipment out of the elements)

 

On the golf course we are playing a little catch-up with still many 2019 agronomic processes left to be finished. We will start to shift from construction mode to maintenance mode very soon.
As always, if there are any questions please do not hesitate to email us grounds@hydeparkcc.com or follow us on twitter @pobrienhpgcc
 
Thank-you
