Clubhouse News Michael Sjostrom General Manager Hello Fox Meadow Country Club Members! Well June is finally here although Mother Nature gave us somewhat of a rocky start weather wise, but I am happy to report that all systems are a go for summer fun so let s take advantage of all that Fox Meadow has to offer! Please review the calendar this month as well as the upcoming tournament schedule and block out some time to attend Club events and get the summer season off to a great start. You will be seeing a few upgrades over the next few weeks including: New Fitness Equipment Pool Furniture Parking Lot Renovations Clubhouse Repairs Please be aware that we are having the Clubhouse carpets cleaned Monday 8 th and anything we can do to help prevent course shoes walking through the Main Dining Room area s from the 9th on would be greatly appreciated. You will also be noticing some upgrades to the locker rooms including new counter tops as well as the overall look. In addition, we now have 5 pieces of new equipment for greens and grounds that was sorely needed on it s way to Club and I will be throwing a quick party once they hit the lot! I hope you can see from the items mentioned above that Eagle Golf is committed to restoring Fox Meadow back to the Club level experience that is expected as well as deserved from all the loyal Fox Meadow Members. There has been countless hours spent collecting all the necessary information, bids and estimates along with the new process regarding ordering since the new Company came on board around the first of the year but be reassured that we have the green light and I am excited for what lies ahead. Thanks you as always for your patience and my door is always open! Cheers, Michael Sjostrom
Turf Talk Jeremy Slota Golf Course Superintendent Membership of Fox Meadow, As June approaches, we say farewell to a May that brought several days of record high temperatures in the 90 s and a variety of complications with the irrigation system. Many of the green and tee complexes became hydrophobic, which literally means waterfearing. After a site visit with Eagle corporate agronomist, Scott Carrier, we devised a concise plan to attack those poor areas, and bring them back as quickly as possible. Moving forward into the month of June, we have already produced a significant increase in turf quality, due to both our cultural practices and the 2.4 of rain we received the last weekend in May. Greens and tees have both been fertilized and given an application of a wetting agent. These two applications feed the grass plant, as well as maintain a consistent moisture level across the playing surface. The rough is scheduled to be fertilized by middle of the month (earlier if delivered) and we have begun inter-seeding the Driving Range target greens with Ryegrass seed. After seeding, the target greens will get a topdressing of sweet peat, to speed up germination. The irrigation system is operating, and sprinkler head evaluation is in the process. This evaluation is going to help us be more efficient with our consumption of water, placing it where it needs to be by changing nozzle sizes and trajectory of the stream of water. The Greens and Grounds Department is staffed for the season, several of which have been with us a few years. We are excited for the upcoming Member/Member, and have been working hard to prepare for this special event. The Member/Member is an event that we have just as much passion for as all of you. Joining Fox Meadow once again, are young men and women playing in the AJGA Junior All Star Championship from June 15 th -18 th. This is my first opportunity to prepare for this event, and I have shared my excitement and anticipation with our staff. Our goal is to provide them a fair, yet challenging test of golf, and we feel very fortunate and take great pride in being able to display Fox Meadow to players from all over the country. Thank you as always, and we look forward to seeing you on the golf course. Regards, Jeremy P. Slota
