Memorial Day Golf

Well, we just can't seem to catch a break.  After having marginal conditions for cart play this morning, we were all hoping that we would not get anymore rain today.  Obviously, that is not what happened.  This afternoon we received another .75 inches of rain that we did not need.  Now we have gotten over 4 inches of rain in the last five days.  Needless to say, the golf course is completely saturated.

Considering how wet the course is this evening, the chances of us being able to have carts in the morning are fairly slim.  There have been mornings that the course has surprised me and drained quicker than I expected, hopefully tomorrow is one of those mornings.  Check here in the morning to find out the status of the course and carts.  I will begin evaluating the course around 5:00 a.m. and will try to have the status posted here before 6:00.  As always, if we can't have carts you are welcome to come out and walk.

Here are a couple of pictures of the course from this afternoon.
