Winter Bunker Renovation

This winter the maintenance department will be renovating all the bunkers on the golf course. We will remove all the old sand, replace all drainage, and add the new sand. The new bunker sand will then be compacted with the sand-pro and raked. The new bunker sand was tested by the USGA and meets the standards for bunker sand. When completed all bunkers will be consistant and look very nice.

Trails Golf Club Turf Departments new Blog Site!

December 28, 2011

Welcome to The Trails Golf Club Turf Departments new Blog Site! On this site we will post what the maintenance department is doing on the golf course and also post any future projects that we may be doing on the golf course. I will try to post to the blog weekly and sometimes more than once a week. We will also explain why certain maintenance procedures are done and the effects on playability they may have. Pictures of the numerous wildlife and birds that make The Trails home will also be posted periodically. I hope that everyone will visit the site often and enjoys the pictures and the educational opportunity that it offers.
