Overseeding 2010

This year we got the seed down and the irrigation started in record time -- 6 days & 1 hour, without any overtime. The weather was great and the winds were low thus we did not have anything to slow us down. This is good news since this year we have seven days less to get the golf course ready than we did last year due to the later start date and one day sooner opening.

The team is getting ready for the transfer of power to JC Resorts coming on Nov 1st and starting tomorrow they are doing their applications and interviews. In addition, the new uniform company is coming out and by opening day you should see our staff back in uniform.

Flowers are coming in next week and will be planted upon their arrival. There will a couple new additions of color bowls at the entrance and JC Resorts is looking into long-term additions to our color pallet. The oleanders along El Dorado are slated for trim Nov 2nd and should be finished within a day. Numerous applications are slated for the upcoming weeks thus please DO NOT drive on the golf course early.

We have block off every entrance into the golf course and ask that you please do not go on to it until we open. Every year we have one or two people who ignore this and cause damage to the golf course which takes us additional weeks to repair. In addition, the dog park will be closed for the next three weeks.
