Fall Aeration: Fairways and Tee Boxes

Dear Golfers,

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience over the next few weeks as we perform essential fall aeration and maintenance on our fairways and tee boxes.

This process is critical to the long-term health and quality of your golfing experience.

Aeration Schedule (Fairways & Tee Boxes Only)

Maintenance will proceed in the following order. While the course will remain open, play may be temporarily adjusted around the working crew.

Why Fall Aeration is Crucial

Performing this extensive work now is necessary because fall is the best time for the turf to recover and prepare for winter.

• Drives Root Growth: The cool air temperatures combined with mild soil temperatures allow the grass to quickly heal the aeration holes and dedicate its energy to establishing deep, healthy roots before the ground freezes.
• Ensures Spring Quality: The fall aeration breaks up soil compaction from the summer traffic, ensuring that essential nutrients, air, and water can penetrate the root zone throughout the dormant season.
• Guarantees Spring Playability: By healing over winter, your fairways and tee boxes will be firmer, greener, and in optimum condition when the spring season arrives.
