Seymour Golf Course Conditions

Wednesday, November 25th (7:00 AM update)

The course is open at 9:00 AM to members only.

We have received a staggering 14.05″ or 357 mm of rain to date, already far eclipsing our November average monthly total with still a few days left on the month.

Please note:  With the onset of winter weather complying with traffic control measures becomes all the more important.  Cold temperatures, rain, and decreased sunlight coupled with a busy fall of golf makes growing grass in these areas difficult.

Greens: Open.

Note:  A reminder that the temporary greens established around the course are “ground under repair” Please do not hit/take divots off of them.

Tees: Open.  Note: we have adopted a single tee marker system for the winter season.  Please play in line with the single marker.  We will utilize this system to avoid our staff walking across frosty tees when we have to move blocks to temporary tee locations.

Driving Range: Opens 15 minutes prior to the first tee time (mats). The Range closes today at 3:30 PM.

Putting/Chipping Green: Open.

SGPA Area: Closed.

Power Cart Access: Paths Only (Strictly enforced; do not leave the cart paths as roughs/fairways are extremely wet).

Pro Shop: Can be reached at [604-929-2611]

Fertilizer and Fungicide Policy

Pesticides (primarily fungicides) are used on the course and practice areas to maintain the health of the grounds. Staff members comply with legislation and manufacturer’s recommendations concerning the use of these products, and all efforts are made to protect golfers from exposure. Notices are posted prior to each application so golfers may choose to play or not to play that day.

Golfers should always take precautions to reduce any chance of absorbing pesticides:

• Direct and/or indirect contact between your mouth and anything in contact with the playing surface should always be avoided.
• Skin and eye contact can also result in absorption.
