·         Course Opening – We are excited to announce we will be opening the golf course Tuesday March 25th for the season. We will start with cart path only for the first week and move to 90-degree rule in time. All greens and most tee boxes will be open for play.

o   Bag Tags – We have new bag tags for the 2025 year. All members will have a new bag tag that will be available for pick up in the office.

o   Tee Sheet – The tee sheet will open live at 3pm today March 18th. We will continue to have a 10-day booking window for members. At 3pm today you will be able to book from opening day until Friday March 28th, 10 days out. Tomorrow morning at 7am, Saturday March 29th will go live and everyday at 7am a new booking day will be available.

o    Tee Time Bookings – Please be advised the tee sheet at this time of year is very condensed. The first time available is 9:30am due to cold and frost. It is challenging to get early tee times, but this will change as the tee sheet expands. Please be sure to cancel times if you overbook or decide not to play. The biggest tee sheet problem we have are members who do not cancel their times. Remember booking advanced tee times is a privilege.

·         Driving Range – The driving will open Saturday March 22nd. We will start the year on our range mats and the range will be open from 11am-5pm Saturday to Monday. Starting Tuesday Mar. 25th, the range will be open 9am-6:30pm.

o   Range Cards – Range cards for new members are available for pick up in the office. Existing members who have lost their range cards please contact Karla in the office.

The hours will expand once the course opens Tuesday March 25th. We will have a full food and drink menu available with our famous weekly features starting in April.

·         Tarp Removal – We will be looking for volunteers for tarp removal Friday March 21st at 11am. All helpers will be appreciated as it looks windy on Friday. The more the merrier.
