As everyone probably knows we opened the course on April 1st. We were very excited to finally be able to pull the trigger and let the 2015 golf season begin at Blackhawk. See
here how opening dates compare all the way back to 1973. The weather hasn't been great so far but every day the course seems to come more and more alive. Hopefully after the rain this week there will be more green for everyone to enjoy.
Opening Day Pictures
A few pictures can't show the whole story. Hopefully you can have your own before and after experience after seeing these photos and coming out to play.

Down by the lake
We had a chance today to start work on one of the unsung heroes of the golf course. We spent the morning installing the check valves, pipes and baskets for the irrigation system. It's nice to have them all in so the system is ready when we inevitably need it.
As cold as it looks
Omar and Angel are in the wet suits battling the waves. Dave and Victor are in the waders, staying closer to shore.
