Gentlemen: We have renewed the "Adopt a Hole" program which will be instituted when the season begins. We are in need of at least 36 volunteers from the Men’s Club in order to have at least two people on each hole. There is no limit on the upper end but we want to make sure that there are an adequate number of people involved and that each hole is covered.   Click here to see the current list of volunteers.

This program is important in many ways and we want to make sure that the people who volunteer will be able to fulfill their commitment. Everybody gets busy and has any number of things going on so if you are going to have trouble fitting this effort into your schedule please do not make a commitment you will have trouble fulfilling later.

There are three primary aspects to this program and they are as follows:

On your adopted hole, whenever you play, please do the following, without holding up play.

  1. Note the condition of bunkers and if a bunker needs to be raked take a minute to do so.
  2. Fix as many ball marks on the green as is practical.
  3. If you see debris on the hole pick it up and carry it to the litter basket located at the next tee.
  4. From June through August at least twice a month take the divot mix which will be provided and fill in the divots on the tees and in the landing areas on your adopted hole. This should be done in the evening or in the early morning when you will not interfere with play.

Although the first three parts of the program should be easy enough to do during the normal course of play the fourth aspect is a little more involved. For those who use pull carts or electric carts, you can carry some mix with you to fill in a few divots each time you play. Better yet, one or more members of the group can come out early in the morning or in the evening to do a more comprehensive job.

When filling the divot fill it to the top and then smooth it out. If the mix is filled above ground level it will dull the mower blades.
