One of my favorite days of the year, hosting a @TheFirstGreen field trip!

[Frosty Valley Resort @FrostyGolfPA]

Had the pleasure of hosting our 3rd @TheFirstGreen field trip yesterday with 170, 5th-graders from Danville. Thx @PoconoTurfgrass for volunteering time & $ support, our amazing grounds crew for supporting logistics, local businesses for donations and @gcsaa for an amazing program

Still too wet for carts today (our superintendent allegedly got a cart stuck), but hopefully you can get out to walk on this beautiful ☀️ day. Bunkers have been raked and greens ironed out this morning for the first time this year!

A memorable week uncovering @FrostyGolfPA first days of existence going from a farm to a golf course! Incredible being able to learn about your clubs beginning in real time viewing these long forgotten projector slides!

Frosty Valley history revealed! Thanks to the family of former superintendent Carl Swartzlander, we were given some original pictures of Frosty Valley CC being constructed by architects William and David Gordon. We look forward to sharing more with our members soon!

Great 3-days at the PSU Golf Turf Conference! Excited to be back at the Nittany Lion Inn with excellent speakers & talks! Great job @iTweetTurf and @PSUTurf for reestablishing a quality event! Catching up with many colleagues & meeting new ones was very rewarding

Finally made it to my first @GCSAA Chapter Delegates meeting representing @PoconoTurfgrass Mechanical issues on the way out led to unfortunately missing day 1, so of course held our own meeting w/ Kevin (Ontario) and Greg (Maine) at the nearest rest area! Learned a lot on Day 2

How in the world do I have a teenager already?! This week through all my disbelief, JP has turned into a young man. 🥹 Proud of him in so many ways. Hard to believe. #teenager

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

Thanks @Andre_Turf !!

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

Thanks to the team of @Dan51926654 Jon, Charlie and Carson 20 greens aerified, shoveled, blowed, 65 tons of topdressing sand, and rolled Monday-Wed. Turned around and cleaned up 19 acres of fairways Thur & Fri. And fit in a sand pro demo on all bunkers
Unbelievable effort!!

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

Few things more visually satisfying than dragging in dry topdressing sand on aerified greens!

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

@JeffreyKoch74 @bentgrassdoctor @SDeBolt_DLFPS They look incredible in these pictures!

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

Update….we received 0.35” of rain last night💪�� works like a charm!

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

The best-known way a superintendent can cause it to rain at their course is to start a project they don’t want rain while completing. Therefore, I have started to install our shock pad for artificial turf matting at our driving range. Your move Mother Nature….

@Jchapin_7 @Dan51926654 @FoldsofHonor Haha, closer to 8:30. but yes the gnats were bad and I needed to focus so a cigar was the only solution

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

Tried something new/fun this morning with @Dan51926654 in preparation for the @FoldsofHonor tournament. Not bad for our first run at a big one!

Just a month and a half ago I was rooting hard for @McIlroyRory at Augusta, now I’m showing my kids his interview, him smashing a tee & what @Wyndham_Clark did to Oakmont’s locker room & showing them how not to act. I understand the pressures of sport but be better.
#disappointed

[Flushing It @flushingitgolf]

Rory McIlroy just have an emotive press conference explaining why he has been skipping media;

“It's more a frustration with you guys.”

This is worth a watch.

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

Super proud of @ciccarelli_luke! Not only has he worked to become a valuable asset at Oakmont CC, but challenged himself years ago to do something big in the Turf grass industry and is living it out this week.
Great time visiting him and seeing him in action! Oakmont is pristine

[Frosty Valley Resort @FrostyGolfPA]

Congratulations to Luke Ciccarelli!!

One of Frosty’s own is leading the charge and preparations for the US Open

Behind the scenes with Luke, Agronomist and Spray technician at Oakmont Country Club is working on preparations and daily operations as it hosts the 125th US Open!

[@tomheight @TomHeight]

@JeffreyKoch74 Oh hell no! I’m out 💨

[@tomheight @TomHeight]
