I know most of you don’t hear me say this often, but unfortunately, we received quite a bit of rain this week. Totals came in at 1.12″ from Monday night until Wednesday afternoon. This obviously made aeration North greens impossible and we had to delay until October 8-10. Some have been inquiring about the South greens and those are scheduled for October 22-23. Although I know most dislike the process, I cannot emphasize the necessity. Instead of trying to explain it myself, I am leaving you with two great articles written by David A. Oatis, USGA Northeast Regional Director. See you on the course!

I am the past Golf Course Superintendent at Stow Acres Country Club located in Stow, MA.
I graduated from the University of Rhode Island in 2006 with a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Horticulture and Turfgrass Management. Before Stow Acres, I did an internship at one of the country's top 100 courses, The Stanwich Club located in Greenwich, CT. I worked as an Assistant Superintendent at Oakley Country Club located in Watertown, MA and Stow Acres Country Club South Course before becoming the Superintendent at Stow Acres CC.
I am married to my soul mate and we have two incredible kids! My course counterpart, Kingston, loves riding shotgun in the cart. In my downtime, I enjoy working out, coaching hockey, and playing with our kids. Hope you enjoy the blog!
