Monday Course Closure

Every Monday the golf course closes to the membership to allow for a very important full day of golf maintenance.   Monday allows us to get the most out of our labor force and get everything in good shape for the coming week.  We also use this as an opportunity to spray chemicals in high traffic areas and perform small projects that would otherwise inconvenience the golfer when playing.
 
We would like to ask everyone to please help us take care of the golf course by complying with the course closure rule on Mondays.  The maintenance staff operates under the assumption that there will be no people on the golf course.  Events such as chemical application or fertilization may be occurring that would require golfers to stay off certain areas.  These areas ARE NOT MARKED because the golf course is closed and no one should be playing or practicing golf.  We also run irrigation from a central control on some Mondays and we always assume that no one is on the golf course because it is closed. We need to be assured that when the golf course is closed that it is actually closed.
 
Our Monday outside events are scheduled to start at noon (except for two large tournaments), giving the maintenance department the morning. This, along with an early work start, allows the maintenance staff time to work on the course.

We respectfully ask for your cooperation in abiding by the Monday closure rule.
