The growing season is finally here! It’s hard to imagine the toll 5,000 rounds of golf can take on a course that’s barely had a chance to recover, six weeks of play with little opportunity for the grass to bounce back. That’s exactly what we’ve experienced. But now, with the long days and warmer temps, Alaska’s rapid spring transition is in full swing.

Keep an eye out for our mowers at work, keeping things neat and tidy.

Progress is moving along on our many projects (and the list keeps growing!). The new tee box on hole 8 is shaping up nicely, and we’ve begun expanding the tee box on hole 3 as well. Drainage work on hole 7 continues at a slow but steady pace; we are uncovering the reasons why the water sometimes lingers on the surface instead of draining under the turf. Every step is a learning opportunity, and we’re discovering so much as we go.

A special thanks to KTUU for their fantastic feature last week on the hard work of our maintenance team! They captured our crew in action, doing their part to "Enhance Your Experience" on the course at Settlers Bay.
