Golf Course Maintenance Update

 

 

4/17/26

 

Spring aerification has been completed on both the 18-hole and 9-hole golf courses. The aerification is for the health of the turf on the greens. This process allows water and oxygen to get to the root zone for a healthier plant.

My crew and I will be concentrating on getting the golf course mowed out now. Depending on weather conditions, I am hoping to be caught up by the end of next week.

The Bermuda is starting to take off so I will be spraying out winter weeds that are in our fairways and tees. After that, I will be spreading fertilizer to help give the Bermuda an extra kick start here at the beginning of the growing season.

One last reminder, please confirm with the Pro Shop if it is a 90 degree or cart path only rule for the day. After heavy rainfall the golf course will be cart path only. With wet conditions, no golf cart, even carts with handicap flags, should drive off the cart path.

HIHA July membership meeting is an afternoon at Opera in the Ozarks.  The opera is in English and begins at 3:00.  We will purchase tickets together as a block to sit together.  If you would like to attend, the cost is $41.76.  Simple process - photo the attached QR code to purchase your tickets or respond "yes" to this email and we'll come by your house to collect your check.
 
 
Deadline to purchase is May 10 to make sure we are able to purchase the block of tickets.  The Opera sells out fast!
 
We will meet in the Barn parking lot at 2:00 on July 9 to pick up tickets and caravan along 187 to 62 Inspiration Point (a short distance).  We'll follow the Opera with a beer/wine exchange and catered sandwiches for a separate charge at the Barn.  You can do both or either one independently.  Information on the dinner will be sent on a separate email.
 
Candide,Leonard Bernstein’s take on Voltaire’s story, follows a good‑hearted but clueless young guy who  keeps getting knocked around by life—wars, earthquakes, shipwrecks, getting sold off like property—you name it. Through all of it, he keeps repeating his teacher’s feel‑good slogan that this is “the best of all possible worlds,” even when the world is clearly beating him up. He chases his sweetheart Cunegonde across continents, only to find more nonsense and cruelty at every stop. After enough hard knocks to last ten lifetimes, he finally meets an old farmer who doesn’t bother with big speeches or fancy ideas. The man just works his land, minds his business, and lives in peace. That’s when Candide finally gets it: real satisfaction comes from putting in honest work and taking care of what’s yours—summed up in the line, “we must cultivate our garden.”

 HI HIKERS

 

 

Monday, April 20th, Jackie and Mark Todd will lead the group on a hike at Smith Creek Preserve, located just south of Boxley on 21 highway.
 
The trail down to Elise Falls was pretty bad shape last year.  It's also a strenuous walk to see a relatively small waterfall.  We've seen much better this spring.  Mark and Jackie are pre-hiking the trail sometime this week.
 
We'll focus on the upper trail this time. The creek was running hard last time and the falls along the creek were spectacular.  The spring was running as well. There should be a lot of wild flowers in bloom.
 
Rather than packing a lunch, let's plan to eat at the the Crooked Rooster in Huntsville after the hike.
 
We'll leave from the Center Stage parking lot in Eureka at 8:00 am and will stop at the Walmart in Huntsville for a restroom break before proceeding south.
 
This is the last hike of the season prior to the hike around the lake and the potluck the following week.  I hole to see a good turnout.
