COURSE REPORT
good
stewards
of
the
land
and
make
the
course
sustainable
in
the
future.
While
there
are
savings
involved,
the
major
thrust
was
water
conservation
and
focus
in
the
"native"
areas,
and
in
the
bar-
rancas
on
the
Players
Course.
The
Players
Course
has
many
areas
where
fescue-
and
pampas-
type
grasses
were
growing.
This
gave
the
course
a
native
look;
unfortunately,
these
grasses
aren't
native
to
our
area
and
started
to
overtake
the
landscape.
We
are
in
the
process
of
removing
those
grasses,
replacing
them
with
desert
plants,
and
installing
drip
irrigation.
We
also
will
be
mulching
the
areas
to
give
them
a
rich
dark
look
that
will
accentuate
the
green
turf
areas.
Not
only
will
this
change
the
look,
but
it
will
better
the
playability
of
the
courses,
and
ensure
sustainability
in
the
future.
CELEBRITY
COURSE
>>
The
look
of
the
Celebrity
Course
has
remained
rich
and
lush
in
flowers
and
plant
life
over
the
years,
and
this
year
is
no
different.
The
only
major
change
to
previous
years
is
that
we
delayed
the
seeding
in
the
wildflower
beds.
These
areas
can
be
challenging
from
a
maintenance
perspective
as
weeds
have
a
tendency
to
infil-
trate
the
grow-in
of
the
wildflowers.
By
delaying
the
seeding
process,
we
hoped
to
limit
weed
growth
by
waiting
until
the
tem-
peratures
dropped
a
bit.
Due
to
this
fact,
the
bloom
of
wildflowers
will
be
a
little
later
than
in
previous
years,
but
the
look
in
prime
season
should
be
fan-
tastic.
We
know
the
importance
of
the
colorful
look
on
the
Celebrity
Course,
and
we
hope
to
make
it
even
better
in
2019.
