The goal of this site is to provide information on the production of great golf playing surfaces in general, and specifically at La Rinconada CC. Comments are encouraged.
Kevin is currently the certified superintendent at La Rinconada Country Club. Kevin was the Director of Maintenance at Lahontan Golf Club for over 14 years. Some of the responsibilities over the expanse of his career include the daily upkeep of multiple golf courses, natural resources, environmental compliance, and roads and streets. The wide ranging expertise has come from a combination of education and experiences. Degrees in Meteorology (1987 University of Nebraska/Lincoln), and Horticulture (1992 Colorado State), complete the formal side of this important combination of qualifications. A lifetime of experience around golf courses, and the game of golf was provided by Kevin's father.
Trees compete with grass for sunlight, water and nutrients, and the trees need to be maintained so that the turf is as good as it can be.
One of the things we are doing on the course is pruning tree roots.
One of the other projects in process is the change out of sprinkler heads on the range that will help conserve water.
New sprinkler head installation at the range
Another project this week that is unrelated to water but I am sure will smooth out many of the bumps in your round of golf is the installation of the new cart path at the 5th hole.
