I often get asked what we do in the winter.
First and foremost is machine maintenance.
We have an equipment inventory worth
hundreds of thousands of dollars. All
equipment gets a complete overhaul. This
includes all filters, oil, bearings, et
cetera, plus the sharpening of all reels.
In addition, golf course accessories,
including blocks and benches, are refinished
or touched up during the winter months. Of
course keeping the roadway, parking lot and
walkways clear of snow by plowing, blowing
and shoveling is an ongoing project.
Over the winter, budgets and plans for the
upcoming season are created and submitted to
the Board of Directors for approval. Members
of our Greens Crew also attend educational
conferences and seminars to stay current on
greens maintenance techniques.
We look forward to seeing all of our members
and guests next spring and here’s hoping for
a short winter.
Thanks,
Fred Schmoelzl, Golf Course Superintendent

any member can run for a position on
the Board. Board meetings are held once
a month. If you would like to put your

our Annual General Meeting in December.
