Walk mowing fairways way too often this summer. Can’t get equipment out. Feels like a replay of the ‘97 Open without the volunteers @sgreenups #pleasestoptherain #needsomesun

Come join our team! We are looking for an Assistant Superintendent. Housing, great benefits package, Major Championships and a great group of people.
Golf Magazine’s newest Top 100 U.S. list is out this week, and I’m happy to see Congressional Country Club’s historic Blue Course return to the list at No. 55 following a terrific renovation by Andrew Green. Congrats to Andrew, the club, the greens staff and the membership.

Great friend, family man, Superintendent and positive influence on everyone. RIP Steve.
We learned early this morning that our friend @wrightsteve19 is dead. He was a champion for Florida superintendents, a wonderful family man and husband, and a joy to be around. He quite simply loved life. More to come later but please keep his wife Sheree in your thoughts.
