All the wet weather has certainly caused disruptions in our maintenance practices. We have been working hard to keep up with the mowing during the couple dry days. The course survived fairly well during the recent storm we had. We lost three trees and had just whole lot of debris scattered around. Thanks for the patience during the cleanup. As always feel free to email me through the club about any questions that you may have. Thanks, Brooks gcmaint@chateaugcc.com
