Thanks for checking out Barrington's golf course maintenance blog! We have started this blog to help keep our members and their guests updated about what is happening from a maintenance standpoint on the course. We will try to keep this blog updated often, and include information on projects, repairs, and other timely grounds related topics.
This is my first experience as a "Blogger", so my assistant, Ian Gallagher, has gotten it rolling with several posts over the winter. Ian will be doing a lot of the posts, but I will be jumping in once in a while. It looks like this is going to be a great way to answer questions about the course before they are even asked.
So.....when will the golf course be open for play this spring? That's a tough question to answer at this point. It will definitely not be this weekend, March 29 and 30, however, the weather does look promising for next week, so I am very hopeful that we might be ready sometime next week. The main issue at this point is the frozen ground. Currently, there is a layer of frost at the surface that will melt quickly, but there is also a layer deeper under surface that may take a little longer. Believe me, no one wants to get things going more than the grounds department! Keep checking this blog for more course opening updates.
