Spring Opening and More

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.

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.

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
