April 1st - The Weather is No Joke

The golf course remains covered with snow and unfortunately the weather forecast is calling for another 20cm over the next few days.

This forecast of heavy snow for Saturday April 2nd has forced the cancellation of the annual Turf Care staff orientation and training day. The orientation will be rescheduled for Saturday April 9th.

Golf Course Opening Statistics

While searching for data on historical golf course opening dates, Ron Hood supplied us with the following information.

Earliest Opening Ever - April 4th (Pre 1994)

Latest Opening Ever - May 6th (2009)

10 year average - April 22th - 27th.

We will need some very good weather in the next few weeks to achieve this target.
