When We Can't Get On The Courts...

When we can't get on the courts (to perform routine maintenance) due to rain or other circumstances, the grounds department is always finding ways to stay busy and improve the club.

Overseeding the baselines to increase grass cover-

Here we use an aerator to pound seed into holes to promote better germination.

Clearing brush from around the club,and reusing the chips as mulch-

We pruned the grounds aggressively the weeks leading up to the day we rented the shredder. You may have noticed the cleared areas in the parking lot and the area adjacent to the lower clay courts.

Weeding the (never ending) walkways-

One of the most labor intensive jobs, weeding the brick walkways is a tedious but important job in improving the aesthetics of the club.
