Well, by now, we're past the midpoint of summer. As you know, it has been hotter and drier than usual. However, the Superintendent and his crew have been doing a great job of irrigating the course. But for a few brown spots here and there, the course is in excellent shape, especially compared to many others.

If you've played recently, you've ll notice the construction work going on at the 2nd and 3rd greens. Within a couple of months, work reconstructing those greens will begin in earnest. Play will continue during construction but there will be temporary greens for both holes.

There are some tournaments coming up that might be of interest:
  • Friday, 27 August Member-guest, 1PM shotgun start
  • Sunday, 29 August 9-hole couples tournament, 11:30-12:45 tee times
  • Saturday, 4 September ABCD mixed quota, 8AM shotgun start
  • Friday, Saturday, Sunday 17-19 September Member-member round robin
If you’re interested, see Jack in the pro shop to sign up.

The High School golf team has begun practices for what should be an exciting season. Several of the players from last year will be returning, along with some “rookies.” Go Rangers!!

Have a great rest-of-summer. Come out and enjoy some good golfing.

The Westborough Board of Selectman, at the request of the Westborough Country Club Operating Committee, (WCCOC) signed a new contract for Jack Negoshian.

The price information had to be submitted in a separate sealed envelope marked "Price proposal for Golf Professional". A $1,000 proposal guaranty in the form of a bank or certified check made payable to the Town of Westborough had to accompany this proposal.

The course is in great shape, with the greens being particularly fast: kudos to Mike Hightower and his staff.

Have a great round, and don't forget to replace divots and fix ball marks.
