Moccasin Creek Maintenance Blog

 A few weeks back it really looked as if we would have an early start to the golf season, now we are looking to be much more on a normal schedule.  

On my recent walk around the course I found the greens to be mostly cleared off with little or no ice accumulation on them.  Each one I checked also had good moisture levels, even considering the dry winter.  

The fairways are partially covered in snow, many areas have ice accumulation on them.  This ice should not be much of a problem currently, as the it has been present for a brief period of time.  This really shows what a lack of surface drainage we have in many areas of the golf course.  It is no coincidence that the fairways that struggle are the few that drain the worst.  

We did finally receive one of our capital items purchased last fall.  It is a new utility cart.  This will be nice addition and upgrade to our ever aging fleet.  

The work in the Maintenance Facility continues on.  We are getting close to finishing up on the main equipment.  We will then move on to the golf course accessories; including benches tee markers and all other accessories.  When to time comes we will begin course cleanup, there may be additional cleanup with the amount of tree work accomplished this winter.   

When will spring break for the Golf season to begin?

We will see you on the course.
