COVID-19

     This has been a year to remember.  I hope everyone is doing ok.  My staff has been working very hard to get the golf course ready for the season.  With the State of Missouri stay at home order my seasonal staff is still at home.  I have 5 men that are ready  to go when the order is lifted. I have also been staggering my full time employees start times so everyone is not in the shop at the same time.   It has been very challenging to maintain this property with 6 people.  It just does not look right out on the course with no flags and pins in the greens.  Cups upside down who would of ever believed this.

      We suspended all projects that would put my employees closer than 6 feet.  We have been basically maintaining and mowing the golf course.  We had some great weather to get some of our projects checked off our list the past month.  Drainage on 14 green and 17 green are too big ones.  Trimming limbs throughout the golf course and removing a number of dead and damaged trees is next.  We have been hammered with lots of rain.  We get the stay at home order and it turns dry go figure.  We have a big list of projects that seems to get bigger every year.

      Hopefully we are starting to turn the corner and we can  get back closer to normal.  Please stay safe. It won't be long and we can all enjoy golf the way it is supposed to be played.
