What's Happening - A sample of todays maintenance.

Just wanted to give you a day in the life of maintenance at Kenmure.
I won't do this everyday, just from time to time to give everyone an idea

We started the day with rain but it ended up very nice. We make our decision to go "flags only" by 9:00 am and the forecast was unsure.

Here is what happened today:

1. All tee boxes, greens and collars mowed.
2. All bunker edges weedeated.
3. 2 men spend the entire day mowing rough.
4. The driving range was mowed, and all divots filled.
5. Clyde (Horticulture) spent the day removing weeds from beds.
6. Irrigation pipe installation begins on tennis courts.

Things that are happening soon:

1. Sod installation behind driving range.
2. Pre-emerge weed control and fungicide applied to greens (Monday)
3. Finish Tennis Court Irrigation.
4. Finish Mulch, Start Pine Straw.
5. Finish punching tees and fairways.
6. Plant all flower beds on course and around clubhouse.
7. Dandelion and Clover Weed Control.
8. Mow, Mow, and Mow some more.

Here are two videos I shot today dealing with Tennis Court Irrigation.

The begining of the project


Tight Squeeze!
