HI HIKERS

 

 

We'll kick off the 2021/22 hiking season Monday, October 3rd with a walk around the Island followed by a picnic pot luck at the home of Elaine and Steve Smith. Hot dogs and hamburgers will be provided. Please bring drinks, a favorite side dish or dessert and folding chairs. Meet at Elaine and Steve Smith's House at 10:00 am (47 Lakeside Drive).  Please let us know if you plan to attend so we can better estimate the quantity of hamburgers and hot dogs that will be needed. Hope to have a big turnout.

 

The picnic will be followed by a short planning meeting as well to schedule additional hikes and hike leaders for the season.

 

 

We agreed on the following hikes for October:

 

10/3 The Island 5K Elaine/Steve Smith Hosting

10/10 Roaring River Devil’s Kitchen Vickie/Mike Welch

10/17 Tanyard Creek Jackie/Mark Todd

10/24  Glory Hole/Alum Cove Elaine/Steve Smith

golf course update

 

 

Hello everybody,

 

Its that time of the year again. The temps are cooler, days getting shorter and time for fall aerification. My crew and I have just finished doing the fall aerification for the 18 hole course this previous week and will be doing the 9 hole course next Monday. 

 

This past week we spread sand, punched holes, rolled, fertilized, and brushed the greens. This annual practice has many benefits for the health of the turf ranging from root growth, thatch control, to water retention and drainage within the green.

 

 

 

 

First thing we do, during the aerification process, is to spread a heavy layer of sand on the greens. This sand will be pushed down into the soil and into the canopy of the turf. Second thing is to use our aerifier to poke holes in the green. This year, we used solid tines and didn't pull a core. The reason I chose a solid tine was that the thatch layer was not built up enough to pull any material out of the green. Third, we ran a brush over the green to spread the sand around the surface, filling all of the open holes on the green. Following the brush was our vibratory roller. The roller helps smooth the surface and with the vibration of the rollers, will help the sand fall farther down in to the holes that we just opened up. To finish off everything, fertilizer was spread and watered. The fertilizer will help the healing process by giving extra nutrients to the plant.

 

This annual practice has many benefits for the health of the greens. We are opening up new channels, filled with sand, within the greens to help oxygen reach the roots plus will let water tranport through the green easier. The sand will help with the small amount of thatch that is at the surface and also helps the soil quality. The fertilizer will help the greens recover and will help the grass plant store up some nutrients when winter finally gets here.

 

9 Hole Golf Course will be CLOSED all day Monday 9/12/22 for aerification.

 

Thanks for reading,
