Ready to "Rock & Roll"

This is the machine we will be using when aerating the greens starting on Monday. It can remove 1\2" diameter cores up to 4" deep. When we remove the cores the holes will be filled with sand to create a better growing environment for turf.

It is August 15th and the temperature is 54 degrees.

It is a beautiful day in Lafayette Hill, PA and a great time to come out and golf. The summer has been kind to us and conditions are at their peak.........You know where I am getting at, it must be that time of year for greens aeration. Monday will be the start of aeration so this weekend will be great for golf with the conditions and the weather in your favor.

A drink with alcohol can "kill" more than brain cells.

This area of turf was wiped out by a alcoholic beverage that spilled. If you are at home having a cookout or playing softball somewhere it is really "no big deal".

But, when it happens on the 3rd green it "IS" a big deal!

Please, do not bring anything but your putter, ball mark repair tool and your ball marker on to the green. All the golfers at WVCC will thank you.

Topdressing the practice area approach.

With the aggressive growth habit of Bermudagrass, timely topdressings must be scheduled. This light application will blend into the turf after the sand has dried and brushed.

2014 Member Guest tournament begins!

Great weather is predicted for both Friday and Saturday for the Member\Guest. We hope everyone enjoys themselves and that every putt is a birdie putt!

It must be Men's Member Guest time. No detail is too small.

Grounds staff members (Pedro and Joseph) attending to even the smallest detail. The Belgium block curbing at the entrance to the club getting brushed and scrubbed down.

In preparation for the member guest tournament this weekend, the golf course is closed today.

Fore The Golfer: Changing A Hole Location

Prepping for additional sod.

We will be adding more new sod to the practice tee on Thursday, we took delivery of 5,000 square feet of Latitude 36 Bermudagrass sod. This will fill in many of the bare areas from the harsh winter of 2012/2013.
