Good Morning,
The past week might have been the one to forget for the year. Ten inches of rain, over two days, caused very high flood levels across the golf course. I posted a couple videos on our facebook page that show a lot of detail. Here are a few photos from around the course:
This photo is the maintenance shed parking lot.
This photo is the 15th hole.
This photo is the 12th hole. Notice the bridge and red tees underwater.
The heavy rains and flooding gave us some time to continue working on equipment, cleaning the shop areas, and organizing inventories. The inside work is always important and was the main focus of our past week.
There hasn’t been a lot of mowing since Tuesday evening. This will leave us playing catch up this coming week. With rain in the forecast, at the beginning of the week, will make it quite a challenge to get everything caught up by the weekend. I am confident we will get there though.
The new simulator arrived the middle of this past week. I will start setting this unit up the upcoming week. We have also applied for the year long liquor license, starting November 15, to accommodate our new winter golf season.
The new advertisement agreements have been distributed to all the new businesses taking over open tee signs. The ads will be created by Southwest Monuments prior to being attached to the tee signs.
Here is a photo of the 15th tee sign advertisement.
