Over the long weekend the course was busy with many golfers enjoying a round or two of golf. We have seen many familiar faces, but more and more new faces are showing up. Please remember if you have not been a member at the golf course for over two years you are eligible for half-price membership.
With June here, hopefully we will get more consistently warm weather, and with that comes prime grass growing. Our greens are looking great and with some sun and water they will be even better very soon.
