We appreciate everyone coming out and we look forward to next month s Spring Kickoff! Golf News either August or September. New Players Tees The course has been rated for a new set of tees called the Players Tees. The tees will consist of a combination of Blue and White tees designed to give golfers an option to play the course from a fun but challenging combination of tees. Look for the new Players Tees in the near future on new scorecards. The course has also been rated from the Yellow Junior Tees. This option is intended to be used for beginning ladies and advancing junior golfers for score posting purposes.

2 BERKELEY SENIOR CORNER Febuary 2019 All Berkeley male members: If you were born in 1969 or earlier, you qualify as a Senior. The 2019 golfing season is about to begin with senior weekday tournaments and match play competitions at Berkeley and other participating clubs in the North Atlanta Senior Men s Golf Association.

We are fortunate to have a course that drains well and a great course management staff that works hard to keep playing disruptions to a minimum. You re the best Chris Purvis, Berkeley s Super Superintendent. Let s do our best in filling divots, picking up tees and trash and avoiding those wet spots.

Superintendent News March 2019 Rain, rain, rain!! I promise it will eventually stop. The positive with all the water is when it warms up, the grass will have plenty to drink and grow with. On March 4th, we are scheduled to spread the fertilizer and pre-emergent, weather permitting. Even if it is marginally wet, we will continue with the spread. You may see some tire marks from the large truck, but once the grass grows and we begin to mow, it will level itself out and disappear. We are almost finished with adding 4 of sand to all the bunkers. As long as the rain continues at times, it will help with the settling of the sand and get them back to more playable conditions. If you any questions, please stop me and ask.
