recovery. Russ is a great worker and "jack of all trades". Golf Course Superintendent Mike Mueller and golf course worker Chad will be scampering about keeping up without Russ. A retired gentleman who has golf course maintenance experience, Norm, will be filling in as needed. It isn't uncommon to see Brus on a mower or ball picker either. Everyone pitches in to get the job done! What a crew! * Repairs and additions to the boardwalk will be approximately $10,000 including the handrails. The boardwalk settled more that expected and additional posts will be required. Bridgco is working on the project now. * The grass is growing. However, grass growth is about 3 weeks behind because oflackof warm temperatures - 80's is what is preferred. Veit Construction Co. showed up unexpectedly Wednesday, May 31 thinking that they would maneuver their huge equipment over the turf to do creek cleaning as per Rice Creek Watershed's requirements. (They had all winter long to do this, which would have been the time when the course would not be adversely affected). Of course staff said "Absolutely not" and did not let them take their "tanks" off the flatbeds. After having a two hour standoff Veit Co. finally decided that they would come back later and clean the ditch by hand labor. Good decision on their part!! * Most of the trees made it through the winter. A few did not and they will be replaced. Large pine trees will be planted along the east side of the parking lot to screen "Pomp's Tire Service". Rick Wriskey has arranged this project. Rick will also install landscaping around the Clubhouse. Landscaping will also be added at the entry sign and along the path to the Clubhouse. Flower boxes will also be added. Mary S. * On Wednesday, at approx. 1 1:40am, we had a purse snatching. An older lady was walking in the vicinity of Pinewood School. A male party came up behind her and grabbed her purse. The suspect(mid 20's) fled on foot to a waiting car. Contents of victim's purse were found on Raymond Ave. and Co.Rd. H2. Still missing are keys,$2 cash,and the purse. This is the first crime of this nature, that we can remember.
