Fall Greens aerification will be done this month as will most area courses. The aerification of our greens are important for their health through-out the year. Our Greens Superintendents Dale Bowers at Legion Memorial and Dennis Parsons at Walter Hall will do there best to ensure quick recovery and minimal disruption to play. The scheduled dates are:

Walter Hall Golf Course – September 14th
Legion Memorial Golf Course – September 21st

Thank you for your understanding as we do our best to ensure we provide the best playing conditions we can for your enjoyment into the fall and winter.

The Fairways will also be aerified during the month of September. This is necessary for the health of our fairways and must be done before the rainy season gets here. Fairway aerification is done one hole at a time and results in almost no disruption of play or play conditions. The plugs are picked up immediately and the fairway is then sanded. When the hole is freshly sanded or if your ball ends up in one of the holes where an aerification core was pulled out you may take relief for no penalty within one club length, no closer to the hole.

Please help us to make the golf course available to as many of our golfing community as possible.

If you are not going to use your tee time or not all the players you have reserved times for are going to play, please call us and cancel those times as soon as you are aware that they are not needed. Many times during the course of the week we are turning away groups because our tee sheet is full, then we have groups no show without canceling or have a group signed up as a foursome show up as only a twosome. Those spots then go unused when others would have loved to have had those times. This is not fair to other golfers that are unable to find an open time to play.

Please cancel any unneeded tee times and give others the chance to use those times!

CAPARAS/LAWRENCE Claim 2009 Joe Richer Junior Club Titles

Rudy Caparas (13 yrs old) of Bothell won the 2009 boys Joe Richer Jr. Golf Club championship with a par on the 2nd extra hole in a sudden death playoff with Nick White (17) of Everett. Both players shot 153, Caparas 80-73 and White 77-76 to tie for first place in the 36 hole event played at Walter Hall Golf Course and Legion Memorial Golf Course. First round leader Mason Tomlinson of Everett nearly missed the playoff with rounds of 76-78-154.
