Agronomy Department and Course Weekly Update

December 19, 2013

I have just a few quick bullet points this week:

The plant material (trees and shrubs) which will be used to finish the landscape renovations has finally arrived, so you will see our staff installing plants over the next couple of weeks on holes 7, 8, 15 and 16.  I am excited to see the finished product.

This week finally provided a break in the rain and we were able to finish spraying our Pre/Post Emergent Herbicide. This application has taken almost 4 weeks to complete due to the rain, it should have only taken 5 days, very frustrating.

We will also be repainting the gray tee markers as the color we used this summer looks white when it is in the sun and we prefer a gray tone. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at kmacdonald@valleycrest.com and for more information follow us on Twitter @stivescc_vcsup and the Blog: http://vcgmstivescountryclub.blogspot.com/

See y’all on the course,

Kyle Macdonald, GCS, Class A
