Mr President


I was recently elected president of the Rocky Mountain Regional Turfgrass Association.  This Association is responsible for putting together an educational conference and trade show each December for people that work in the green industry in the Rocky Mountain region. The RMRTA not only helps provide education for the golf course superintendents, but also helps the Rocky Mountain Sod Growers Association, Colorado Sports Turf managers Association, Colorado Association of Lawn Care Professionals, and Colorado State University.  I am very grateful to be a part of such a great organization.
Please visit the RMRTA website for more information.

Winter Projects

With all the great snow cover this winter we have been keeping ourselves pretty busy in the maintenance shop.  I always get the question from golfers, friends, and family, what do you do in the winter time?  Well this winter we have rebuilt the dumpster doors for the dumpster holding area at the clubhouse.  We have sanded and preserved the driving range benches.  We have also vinyl guarded all of the bunker rakes (video coming soon), flag sticks, 150yd poles, and repainted all of the traffic control blocks.
