Practice Facility/ Employee Safety


Brad and Sam have the practice facility setup looking first class and Harold Davis has the condition of the practice facility in incredibly great shape.  This group does a fantastic job and I am grateful for all of their contributions to our team.  The amount of ownership they take in the facility is what makes them so special.  They are passionate about the facility and continue to tweak the operation to better suit the membership.  If you have any observations, never hesitate to call me (787-2778) or simply talk to Brad or Harold. 
 
We are here to provide you with the best experience possible!


The short game chipping greens have been getting a tremendous amount of use.  On busy days with a dozen golfers hitting at these two greens at any given time, golf balls accumulate quickly.  Staff tries to clear these two greens of golf balls as much as possible.  This has been a request by several members recently- to keep the greens cleared.  However, when staff makes this attempt during a busy day, many golfers continue to hit at the greens.  This creates a safety hazard for staff and leads to them waiting until the tee is clear to pick up golf balls.  If you are at the practice facility, I ask that you support our team and allow them to safely remove the balls from the chipping greens. 


Again, the overall use of the facility has increased tremendously.  I feel the recent renovation project was very well received by the membership which has led to the increased use.  We can quantify the increased use based on the amount of divot mix we are buying as well as the quantity of bottled water we are going through.  These are all great "problems" to have!
