DRY CONDITIONS DRY CONDITIONS OVER SEEDING OVER SEEDING
How quickly we go from a rainy winter to an abnormally dry and warm spring With the last 3 season all have serious drought conditions we will monitor our drought levels as spring turns to summer The lack of rain and warmer than normal temperatures has accelerated the timeline of our plant health applications Application such as pre-emergence herbicides for weeds and our wetting agent application for localized dry spots that would normally go out at the end of May early June are going out now So, if at home you have any new planting or renovated lawns, I suggest keeping them well water as we move through this dry spell.
On the course we continue to try and over seed our rough areas where we have done extensive tree removals
Pictured left is the right side of the 5th green where we have done two spring seedings with our Aerovator and have seen great germination. We are using a combinate of ryegrass and turf type tall fescue for the overseed. The Ryegrass is a quick germinator that will give us the first ground cover The turf type tall fescue has the best drought tolerance that will help throughout the summer months
Fellow Members,
Wow. We have passed the official start of the season on Cape Cod with Memorial Day coming and going. We saw many new and familiar faces out enjoying the golf course. It is in great shape and we encourage you to see for yourself. As we head into the season, please take advantage of the upcoming golf events listed on the Club Calendar. These are great ways to enjoy the course and meet new members.
Now is the time to knock off the rust and fire up your swing for the season. Stop by or send an email to book a lesson today.
The weather is heating up and so will the golf course. As the grass begins to grow, Craig and his team will be hard at work keeping up the excellent course conditions. Our hats are off to them for the great playability of the course.
If you have any questions or need anything please feel free to stop in, email, or call the Golf Shop today. We are eager to help in any way I may be able.

Welcome back Everyone!
We are so excited to see your smiling faces at the MSC! We had the busiest winter at MSC to date. Jon, Jose, Chris, and Ilona kept the ship afloat with their attention to the front desk, while the fitness instructors welcomed new members to group exercise classes. We received all our Life Fitness cardio equipment along with other toys for the fitness programs.
I would like to introduce you to the newest addition on our instructor team, Sarah Barkhuff. Sarah is a yoga instructor with over 25 years of experience in the Boston area. She will be doing the beach yoga Thursday through Sunday starting May 25th at 8:15 am at our mansion side beach. She recently moved to Brewster full time and we are so lucky to have her join us at Ocean Edge. Welcome, Sarah!
