Dutch Elm Disease


Next Monday we will be removing the large American elm tree behind the 13th green. About 3 years ago this tree showed signs for Dutch elm disease. Since that time we have tried yearly fungicide treatments to protect the tree and in hopes that it would overcome this deadly disease. Unfortunately the tree has lost the battle and will need to be removed. Tim's Tree Service will be removing the tree Monday morning.

    Hi Jeff,
    Tim's tree service? I will have that puppy felled and removed in no time! If I remember right we got rid of close to 7, when I was interning there?
