Today is the beginning of the men's Member / Member. We have been prepping the golf course the past few days and the rain has held off thus far. Today will be cloudy with a chance of showers all day. Course setup, cutting and rolling greens, and bunker preparations are well under way. We are looking forward to having a great tournament; see everyone on the course.

Course update
The golf course is being prepped for this weekend's Member/Member. Today the staff is cutting all playing surfaces, rolling greens, and finishing up prep work. The course is handled the high temperatures and humidity nicely. We have kept the watering to a minimum in order to prevent against any excess moisture which can contribute to increased disease pressure.

Irrigation...or Irritation
An irrigation break on the 14th fairway this morning. When dealing with an older system breaks can happen over the course of the season. In order to isolate the fairway we have to shut down several holes. We hope to have the brake fixed today and be back online by this afternoon.
