Here comes September…

BGCC Turf Bulletin

We are days away from Club Championships and welcoming the month of September… where did the summer go‽

A reminder to all members that our irrigation contractor will be starting main line installation on September 3^rd. This work will not interfere with any hole closures nor will they be installing pipe on Men’s / Ladies Closing and the Wednesday Men's League Closing event. Please be mindful of the workers and their hard work.

Our construction contractor will be starting September 17^th. At this time, Holes 17/18 will be closed. The contractor will also be taking stumps out of the ground for our new green on 5. Holes 5/6 will tentatively be closing mid-October. Stay tuned!

Let’s hope for good weather as both these projects start. The better the weather, the faster the project gets done!

Enjoy the Club C weekend, everyone!!
