May has brought a little bit of everything weather-wise so far, but despite the cooler temperatures and rain at times, it has still been great seeing so many members and guests out enjoying the golf course.

The course is in fantastic shape for this time of year, and we were extremely happy with how well the greens recovered from aeration. They healed up incredibly quickly and are already rolling great for this early in the season.

The golf course continues to improve daily, and we’re excited for everything still to come this season.

As we continue to prepare for the 2026 golf season, we wanted to provide an important update regarding our opening date and tee sheet availability.

Over the past few days, we have received approximately 2.25 inches of rain, which has made it extremely difficult for our team to get machinery onto the golf course. As a result, we have not been able to complete key tasks such as mowing, continued clean-up, and final course preparations.

At this time, we are holding off on opening the tee sheet and confirming an opening date. While we are eager to get the season underway, the last thing we want to do is open bookings for a specific date and then be forced to cancel due to course conditions.

We are hopeful that some of the forecasted rain this week will miss us and allow the course to dry out. If conditions improve, we are optimistic about opening the tee sheet later this week for a potential opening day sometime next week. We will continue to monitor conditions closely and provide updates as soon as we are confident in a date.

We appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to ensure the course is in great shape for the start of the season.

April has arrived, and with it comes the excitement of another golf season just around the corner. We’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back to The Muni very soon.

The course has wintered well overall, although we did experience some tree damage from the winter ice storms. Our crews are actively working through clean-up, and we’re hopeful that continued cooperation from the weather will allow heavier equipment onto the course to safely remove higher limbs and complete the work.

At this time, we are targeting an opening date of around April 20th, give or take a few days depending on weather and course conditions. As always, we will confirm and announce both the official opening date and tee sheet availability once we are confident the course is ready.

Our focus remains on preparing the course properly to ensure great conditions right from day one.
