Christmas Time!

During this time of year the members of MCC present the Employees with a Holiday Bonus. All of us down at the Turf Care Facility would like to say a great big Thank You to all of the members who were so generous once again this year!

Here is a picture of my full time crew. These guys and gal work all year long in very different weather extremes to provide MCC with the best possible conditions. All of them take pride in their job and enjoy working here! They really make me look good and I appreciate everything they do. THANKS GUYS!

SNOW ?

Today's winter precipitation was a surprise to everyone!

No concerns in regards to our Greens or Course other than it being WET.

As soon as we are able we will continue painting the Greens today. While we are painting at least two holes will be closed at at time in order for the paint to dry. We apologize for the inconvenience, although I doubt many will want to play today in the snow/muddy/wet conditions.

Due to the delay caused by the snow we may not be able to finish painting the Greens until Friday.

Painting Greens

We have begun painting Greens today. They will be done by Thursday afternoon.
We paint greens for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, it looks great! Our paint job really has a natural look that really gives the golfer a brilliant target to shoot at from the fairway.
Secondly, the dark color helps attract sunlight and in turn helps to warm the surface and the soil.
