Sometimes things don't go according to plan. When April 1 falls on a Monday, you can pretty well bet whatever plans you made will be wadded up and tossed to the side. Yesterday was that kind of day. While much of what we set out to accomplish was done so with precision and to completion, our main objective was not met. The sand spreader truck broke down after completing just a few fairways. First with a large hydraulic leak on 12 followed later by a broken drive chain on the same hole. As to be expected we were unable to find a replacement part nearby. Nearly 600 tons of sand still sits in piles around the property on this dreary Tuesday morning.

| 2018 Spring Topdressing - hey look blue skies! |
With the forecast for more rain over the next week we are going to do our best to get the sand out by the end of the day Wednesday (tomorrow). Please be advised - If you are playing golf tomorrow and it is not raining we will be working on spreading and dragging sand on all the fairways. You will be impacted to some degree throughout your round. If it rains at all, we will be unable to make the application and will wait for the course to dry. It would be nice were Spring to finally make an appearance. Keep an eye out for an email update and we appreciate your understanding as we work to complete this important process.
