GOLF COURSE ACTIVITIES IN FULL SWING!

It is a great time of year to be a golfer! The courses are in great shape and the weather is wonderful (minus the storms). Activities are in full swing at Shiloh Springs. We are half way through the Men's League, Ladies League just started, Men's Match Play is going on and Junior Golf starts in a couple of weeks. When the weather has cooperated we have had a lot of families take advantage of the Family Fun Nights on Sundays and we have a large number of golfers who through golf lessons and practise, improving their golf games. Don't get caught on the sidelines, get your clubs out and get in the game!

Just wanted to include an update on the driving range tee. We are busy shaping and installing drainage on the grass portion of the tee area. When that work is complete we will be sodding zoysia grass. When that grass has a chance to mature we will be open for play on that part of the tee. When completed it will be a very nice addition to our facility. (Can you tell I am excited!)

Golf Range to be sodded soon.

Driving range to be sodded soon.
Even though it is very nice to be able to hit practice balls off our hi-tech athletic turf tee, I know alot of you are looking forward to getting back to real grass on the driving range. That day is comming sooner than later. We get the sod from a grass farm in Oklahoma and we needed to wait until it came out of its dormat stage to cut it and ship it to Missouri. That will happen soon and while we wait you will see, in the near future, our grounds crew working to re-shape the dirt on the tee area so we will not have the drainage problems that we experienced in the past. So now you have the scoop on the driving range tee.
