Turf
18 OCT 2024
Our 2024 season is now in the books. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement throughout the year. I feel privileged to work in such a wonderful environment. My passion, which is also my job, provides me with many challenges. I love trying to surpass myself and find THE solution to the problem. We've done some good things again this year. Did it, however, meet all my expectations, it never does. A host of constraints often prevented us from moving forward at the speed we wanted. But the important thing is to make steady progress. Thank you for your understanding and support. I appreciate the passion that our members have for the club and that level of engagement motivates me and the turf team to provide you with the best conditioned courses possible.
This winter, we will be discussing our objectives and taking a overall look at the positives and negatives of the season. It's important to evaluate our good and not-so-good moves. It's a process that will enable us to improve even further and set priorities.
In the meantime, we have a lot to do. We have to close the courses with fungicides and lay down tarps and pipes on our greens. And, weather permitting, we'll be doing a few small projects that we had planned to do from the start of the season.
