UPCOMING EVENTS
C
lassic Club has
had a productive
summer, emerg-
ing more vibrant
and thriving after an eight-
week aeration process and
summer closure that ended
on September 1.
"We are in excellent con-
dition right now, leading up to
the overseed," Spannaus
said. "All golfing surfaces are
in top-notch shape. This is
the finest I've seen the
course in September."
Classic Club is now prepar-
ing to embrace the winter
season and will close again
October 9 through November
9 for overseeding. The first
day back open is November
10. The agronomy team will
use Poa trivialis, a rough
bluegrass, to overseed the
greens, while perennial rye-
grass will be used on the
tees, fairways, and roughs.
The choice of the grass va-
rieties is not arbitrary. As
they're cool-season grass
species, they're perfectly
suited for winter conditions
with their rapid germination
(typically between 5-7 days)
and quick maturity time of
around two months.
Another appreciable fea-
ture is their vertical growth –
a trait highly beneficial for
players.
"These grass types allow
the golf ball to 'sit up' on the
turf, making it much easier for
the average golfer to get a
clean impact on the ball,"
Spannaus said.
Thus, as fall rolls in, Classic
Club will be steadfastly pre-
paring for the golfing season
ahead, ensuring the course
continues to deliver an un-
matched golfing experience.
