Glen Eagle Maintenance (8/16/24)

 Well, just as fast as the rain came, it went away again. It has been very hot and very dry now for about 9 days. Pretty rare that we go that long in the middle of summer without afternoon showers. Although it is hot an humid in the lower atmosphere, the upper part of the atmosphere is relatively dry which prevents thunderstorms from developing.

The dry weather has allowed the course to dry up and for the most part, except for perimeter areas, it is looking pretty good…




The big “event” over the last week was the installation of the Osprey platform in the common area across from the clubhouse, adjacent to the first tee. The nest will be moved the day of this posting (Friday, 8/16). The nest is being relocated to prevent hazardous materials from falling onto the tennis courts, and allow repairs and maintenance to court lights during nesting season.

I look forward to seeing everyone on the course, and as always, if you have any questions, flag me down or shoot me an email. I always enjoy talking turf!
