No Carts Today, April 20th

Due to the amount of rain we received last night, there will be no carts on the golf course today.  As usual, you are welcome to come out and walk the course if you would like to play.

Last night we received an inch of rain in under an hour, and practically flooded the golf course.  I checked out the golf course last night soon after the rain subsided, and there was water just about everywhere.  This morning, much of the water has gone down, but the course remains saturated.  Our rain total since Friday afternoon is now up to 1.86".  Without warm temperatures and sun, it is difficult for that much rain to evaporate from the course.  Lets keep hoping that there is a change in the weather soon.
