Opening day preparations

The outdoor portion of the 2013 golf season preparations began today with the removal of the covers on the front 9 greens and the practice green.


The greens at Woodside GC are primarily creeping bentgrass and that is part of the reason that they made it through a very long winter that started in mid-October.


Terry Pachal, in his shiny new blue jacket, is back at it this spring after doing some ski instructing at C.O.P. over the winter.  John MacKeeman and Colin Hillson are in the background hauling the cover to the trailer. 


A look at the 3rd green right after the cover was removed.  The turf has over-wintered extremely well.
