Some of you have been looking for the new Kentucky Bluegrass that was planted about a month ago. Here is a pic from last week. Unfortunately the deliciously thick light green patches of grass, in the fairways mostly, is poa...yes, that same stuff that haunts the greens. Too bad that stuff does not survive heat and drought! Hopefully the new Kentucky Bluegrass growth will take hold and crowd out the undesirable grasses. K Blue roots deeper allowing it to survive the summers better.

Here the other ball washer from Dad's memorial fund. It is very nice.

Thank you for the donations for the Mike Bird memorial. His family felt that an appropriate memorial would be something that was useful and discreet (he never was one to call much attention to his deeds). So, in keeping with the needs of the golf course, two ball washers were purchased. A 4-ball washer (pictured) is engraved and set at the first tee box. The other, single ball washer, will be set at the third tee box (a piece, to be replaced, was broken in shipping). The two new washers will allow an existing washer to be placed at the fifth tee box, giving the course washers at holes 1, 3, 5 and 7.

When researching for the washers I was surprised at how pricey they are. Anybody out there looking for a profitable business needs to give golf course accessories a look!

Manager's Scramble

Karry Stoll, Stan Hodges and Mike Arvin went to the second extra hole before claiming victory over their opponents Dave Wininger, Kevin Byron and Wayne Souerdike. Of note, the winning team had a three stroke lead but gave that away before reaching overtime. Congrats!
