Saturday (12.28.19) UPDATE

We ask that those walking today on Weiskopf do not tee off until after 11am.

Thank you,
JA




We will probably have a frost hold Saturday morning, before temperatures reach the 40s/50s.  Please look to this site and for a Zingle to any delays.

Course Conditions (12.27.19)

We will allow walkers on the Weiskopf Course today.

Please be mindful to replace all divots and repair all ball marks.  The turf is not actively growing, despite the current temperatures, and the divots and ball marks that are not repaired in December will stay with us until spring.

We are without continuous cart paths due to work street work on #s 12-13 Weiskopf and #5 Devlin, please exercise caution.

The range is to remained closed.

Course Conditions (12.26.19)

With the unseasonably warm weather; we will allow walkers to play to the temporary greens on the Devlin Course (1-6, 9, and 17-18).  A safety reminder that the bridge is out on #5 while we work on its replacement.

We are hopeful to allow walkers on Weiskopf wither later today or tomorrow; there are still areas of snow coverage and frozen turf.

As a reminder:  the range is closed for the remainder of the season, we will not be setting it up with balls and it is unable to be picked.

Course Conditions (12.24.19)

Due to the ground still being frozen we will be forced to keep both courses closed.  Ground temperatures take longer to warm than air temperatures and we do not want to run the risk of long term damage.  We are hopeful that with a longer warm period that we can allow walking on either course. 

Just a reminder that we are working on replacing the bridge on #5 Devlin and it is currently out.

Thank you and this department and myself wish everyone a happy holiday.
