Thank you to the maintenance staff for all their hard work last week during some of the worst weather we've seen in years. Also, thank you to the membership for your patience and understanding during that same time. We received 5.8" of rain from Saturday, 5/25 thru Thursday, 5/30, then another 1.1" of rain Saturday night into Sunday morning. Unfortunately, the heavy rain Saturday night washed out all the bunkers again and left a lot of debris. We started the cleanup process yesterday along with mowing greens, tees, some approaches, and rough. There are numerous areas throughout the courses that still have standing water, but the recent dry, cool weather is helping to remedy that. Today we're mowing fairways for the first time since last Monday, continuing on rough, and repairing bunkers.
During the month of May, we received 8.5" of rain over 20 days, while our average rainfall is only 4.4" for the month. Year to date that puts us 5.26" over our average precipitation and we've had measurable rain events 55 days so far this year.
