Golf Shop Update

Members,
This is our end of the year Golf Shop Update; tee times are no longer required and golf course is available.  Further updates will be posted at the golf shop entrance, as changes occur with aerification and car path renovation.  Below is our initial announcement:


The Drill and Fill procedure will progress today sequentially in the following order: 1, 4, 2, 3, 5, 6, 17, and 7. Temporary Greens will be in use as work progresses.

In addition, Cart Path Improvements will progress near #15 Green.  At the moment golf carts will not be permitted to cross the bridge from #15 Fairway toward the Green.  All traffic will need to progress past the Chipping Green, across the wooden bridge toward the Driving Range Tee, and then follow the existing cart path past #16 Tees and toward #15 Green.  Signage will be in place on the Golf Course assisting players with these directions.  The bridge allowing normal traffic on #15 will be reopened as soon as possible.

New Chiller Ready for Hook Up

No more blue tarps or tents!  That’s the sign that we have fully installed all of the component parts for the new Chiller System.  September was a challenge with all the rain but work continued under those tarps. On Monday, October 3 we will officially discontinue the old cooling system and begin the implementation of switching over to the new Carrier unit.  Once inspected and certified our brand new cooling system will be operational at last.  Thank you to everyone for their support and patience through this process.

Chiller Project Commences

Many of you have asked what the excavating is about behind the playground area.  We are pleased to report that the area is  being prepared for the installation of a new chiller unit. The new chiller will replace the existing 42 year old unit. The new chiller will improve the efficiency of the air conditioning system in the main clubhouse. The project is expected to be completed by mid-September.
