Nestled amidst 200 lush acres, Spring Run Golf Club has been
a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary since 2009. Put simply, this program
offers information and guidance to implement an environmental management plan
that improves efficiency, conserves resources, and promotes conservation
efforts. With close to 80 beautiful acres of golf course, Spring Run's
superintendent is charged with maintaining first rate amenities while
minimizing any negative impact on the local ecology. So what does the recent
switch from Bermuda grass to Bimini mean for operations and maintenance? How
does the superintendent manage uncooperative weather or address invasive
species? It's not as simple as watching the grass grow! Participants will take
a brief golf cart tour of Spring Run's Audubon certified golf course.
Registration is limited to 20 participants.
Purpose: Learn about how the golf course is managed
