Winter Mainteance

Often times the question is asked, "what do you work on in the winter"? The answer is actually many things. Winter is a great time to recharge our batteries and reflect on what worked well, and what didn't. It is a time to prepare, plan, and strategize new ways to be more efficient for the upcoming year.

 Most of the winter is used to service and restore all equipment and hand tools. Each mower is serviced, sharpened, and checked over by our equipment technician Dan Dietz. All golf carts get serviced, cleaned and waxed.

In the winter, we also...
- Plow snow and clear walks
- Remove dead/dying trees, and prune low branches
- sand, paint and restore all acessories
 Below is a few pictures of what we have been working on lately.
