Par-3 Golf Course OPEN YEAR ROUND! 18-Hole Golf Course closed for rest & recuperation.

Following are several pictures taken of #14 Fairway (one of the most July flood damaged fairways) shown in a time-lapse type sequence. Feel free to click on any photo to enlarge. Recovery is right on schedule for a mid to late May full restoration, weather provided. Staff has applied plant  protectants (fungicides etc.) to ALL fairways to help control any snow-mold type diseases that typically are cost prohibitive (to 25 acres) at a municipal  golf course. In addition numerous light applications of fertilizer were applied throughout the Fall including a Monday November 21st application to "push" the plants coming out of Winter.
