Governor's golf open is done. First member tourny of the season is past, the second one is right around the corner. The heat is here and with the bit of rain we had the grass is growing and the mowers are busy. Greens mowing height was brought down a notch to 0.135" a couple of weeks ago, we plan to be at summer height of 0.120" by Memorial Day. During the season at times we do raise the height up a bit to lessen the impact of stressful conditions. Bunkers have all been edged and sand is being added to a few as I write this. Sunflower seeds have not been as problematic as they were, it appears the notice over Foretees was noticed. So here we go... Not that we have not been going for 2 months already or anything. But with the heat and night time temps up things have really taken shape.
The Greens Committee has approved the concept plans for the front entry make-over. The design is currently being detailed and bids will be taken for the various parts of the project. The committee is hoping to have a detailed presentation to the IVGC Board of Directors at the June meeting, if not the July meeting at the latest. Construction/Renovation will most likely occur in September and October. When things are approved I will post the drawings and plans on the blog.
I was also hoping to show everyone some before and after pictures of the well re-development that was done over the winter. I currently have the video footage of the before, but am having problems with the footage taken after completion. I'll get them up as soon as I can, the screen looks brand new at the bottom of the well after the blasting and jetting that was done. If I can finagle some pictures of the process I will get those up too, I was not allowed to photograph the blasting portion for safety concerns.
