OCC Golf - May 20

Practice Range Note:
The Greens & Grounds Committee has made the decision to improve the turf conditions on the the practice tee by overseeding the bermuda with rye.  As everyone knows, the practice tee has struggled with the past two winter temperatures & has not been able to recover.  We are going to begin to transition the turf to rye grass so that we can have growth earlier in the season & have the tee available for member use earlier in the golf season.  The practice tee will be closed for the next 3-4 weeks in order to give the seed the opportunity to germinate & we will have a daily water schedule in which the practice mat will be temporarily shut down for watering.  Please note the schedule below & I ask everyone to please stay off the grass as well as not to hit from the turf recently sodded directly in front of the mats.  Thank you for your cooperation.
