BMC GROUNDS AND GREENS COMMITTEE MEETING-AUGUST 7TH
All golfers should attend a Grounds and Greens meeting to realize how much work goes into maintaining the golf course in it's beautiful condition. Rory Ellington, Supt. of Greens, is constantly checking new ideas to maintain the course. There is a 2012 new putting green maintence plan. He is constantly working on plans to improve fairways, with regard to diseases, fertility, traffic, etc. There is currently a NCSU Plants Study on #7. Plants have been purchased from Colorado that grow well here. He has updates on Deer Resistant Plants and will share them with BMC Members. The committee is considering plans to trim/remove tree at Clubhouse & #10 for view and improve playability. Those are just a few items discussed.

Butterfly Garden Belles
September 14, 2010
The butterfly garden is taking shape more and more as time goes by. It is such a treat to be able to stop and walk through to see what this dedicated group is doing to transform a plain lot into a lovely walking area.
If you are getting ready to leave the mountain and have plants you can donate for this beautiful garden, call one of the members of the BMC Garden and Herb Society to see if they can transplant them in the garden. Wouldn't it be nice to stop by next season and see your plant living in such a nice place!
Thanks so much to the dedicated gardeners who have made this garden a showcase for all of us to enjoy.
It's just starting now but it will be so nice to see it grow from year to year.
Beautiful garden, thanks to beautiful gals like these who are working so hard at this project.

Grounds and Greens Meeting- Sept 21
The members of this committee are: Chair: Joan Wichman, Bob Josselyn, Fred Lakeway, Suzanne Powell & Linda Sims. It was reported that there will be equipment purchases of a Sand Silo, Tin Spreader, and Irrigation Heads. New paving is planned near the putting green and a Cart Path extension at #10 green. Capital Improvement Plan expenditures will include a Chemical Storage Room and Green side Bunkers. Rory has made a plan, but an architect will come to our course to review and suggest changes in the bunkers. They are very expensive to maintain.
