Play Golf Calgary: Opening all Courses this Week on Full Greens (Mar 9-11, 2016)

Play Golf Calgary Launching Dynamic Pricing at GlenEagles, Blue Devil and HeatherGlen Golf Course
Can you believe it? Golf is already back in Calgary for 2016! It’s the earliest course opening that I can remember.
Play Golf Calgary is opening all of their courses this week, all of them on full greens! This will be their earliest opening ever.

It’s suppose to be nice and sunny this weekend so dust off your clubs and try to get out if you can.

Calgary Weather March 2016

To open the course or not is always a difficult decision every spring.  This spring was an even greater challenge as the winter has been incredibly mild.  There are many factors to consider, how the turf faired over the winter, how wet the course is, is the frost out of the ground enough, are the greens thawed by the sun in the mornings.  We factor in all of these and then watch the forecast like a hawk.  I personally have 5 different weather apps on my phone, and not surprisingly they are typically different.  We look for trends and patterns and a major factor is the overnight temperatures.  If you pull the tarps and things get to -10 or colder it makes for some tense times.
Once everything aligns as they have this spring you have to ramp up the staff, start making calls and see who is available.  We have only a few days to pull tarps, mat and roll the greens, take out garbage cans, benches, tees, flags etc.  We also need to wash and gas a fleet of 80 carts, get the proshop put together and put a schedule together last minute with the handful of staff that can start this early.  We then need to order pop, beer, food, fire up the pop machines, draft lines, ovens, coffee makers etc.
All of this takes an intense amount of effort from our team in a handful of days.

All of this takes an intense amount of effort from our team in a handful of days:
Joel our Director of Golf
Jordan our Superintendant
Jessica in Food & Beverage
Darryl our new Head Chef

If it was not for them and the efforts of Brad, Kevin, Taylor, and so many more of our great HeatherGlen team, we would not be golfing for a few more weeks.

We are very excited and looking forward to a great start that will lead into a great year.
