@PCC1902Grounds @TheTurfZone SpecConnect with the TDR is great. If you’re already probing taking readings might as well let it map it for you. Then just share with your team thru texts or give them login access

Enjoying the warm morning glow … @DogsOfTurf

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Spring aeration 2025, 2 days down 2 days to go.

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Fingers crossed this is the last of the frigid nights to come for a bit, it’s amazing what a little warmth has done.

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

What a difference a week makes! Tree removals complete for the 24/25’ season. Stump grinding and cleanup to start next week. Tree debris and first course cleanup areas taking place this week.

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

With some warm weather ahead, and nighttime lows not overly frigid we are starting the process of snowblowing 2-6”snow off a few of the necessary greens. 1.5-2.5” pocketed ice layer underneath now exposed ready for some sunshine and melting.

@DavidParson10 @GCSAA Haven is a great property, working the corporate side with Invited clubs has been a change for me, but seeing lots of positives with it. Excited to see some grass and get the season going for sure!

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Thankyou @GCSAA for accepting me into the #melroseleadershipacademy. Last week was exciting, empowering and exhausting. A great group of guys that grew my professional network and a fantastic schedule of education. Many thanks!

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

@WLagasseTurf @CourseCares @GCSAAConference @GCSAACEO 2/2 Thursday was most relaxed. Great floor Ed from @GCSAA and @GCSAACEO closing was inspiring. ✈️ home disaster (stuck on tarmac for 3.5hrs, then pulled back to gate) total delay 9 hrs leading to red-eye flight to Boston. Felt I did my most networking after hours and in airport!!

@WLagasseTurf @CourseCares @GCSAAConference @GCSAACEO 1st time attendee, lucky enough to attend as Melrose Leadership recipient. Extremely impressed with the education and events on Mon/Tue. Mon pm on the Midway was exciting. Wednesday am reception was rewarding to see but then the wait/rush to open packed trade show overwhelmed 1/2

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Excited to be in San Diego attending #GIS as a #MelroseLeadershipAcademy attendee. Agronomy education, leadership involvement and networking!

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

With weather not on our side the plan was just 1 large ash tree removal before the winds picked up. Wind got us during cleanup but these guys gave it their all and completed the job.

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

@PatrickVanVleck We caused an earthquake with the first one dropped

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Couple more big pines removed today. First pine removed exposed some beautiful maples to highlight the edge of hole, 2nd removed brings morning sun to a wet fairway and eliminates a cart exit pinch point.

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

@CourseCares @Nickmidds @doug_middleton @KCseaweed Utilized WindJammer on greens for 2 seasons in MA. The WJ actually lowered our wilt point by more than 6 points on our TDR readings. Allowed us to run much drier during the days before recouping at night. @ScotMacAtlantic

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Went quiet on the platform for a while with job transition but it’s time to bring back some Blazer and new course posts.

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

Received my details for Melrose Leadership Academy in the mail today. Schedule of events locked down, tickets ready, hotel booked. Can’t wait! @GCSAA_NE @GCSAA

[TJohnston @TimothyJ32]

@GCSAA @HectorsShop @GCSAAConference Can’t wait!!! Thank you for accepting me into the program.
