While the recent rains are a welcome reprieve from California’s drought, our region’s ongoing heavy precipitation has rendered the driving range unusable. Ground saturation has created large ruts throughout range grounds, making equipment operation and maintenance dangerous.
The driving range was scheduled to close for the much-anticipated lawn maintenance and rehabilitation project on Monday, March 27; however, with all the heavy rain we have experienced (and more on the way next week), the range will not have adequate time to dry to complete any repairs. Therefore, the range is now closed until the project is completed, tentatively August 17.
在练习场关闭期间，工作人员已安排当地高尔夫设施的特别优惠：
We thank you for your patience and understanding throughout this process. We are confident you will be pleased with the final result.

Although the wet winter has kept our irrigation costs low, it has taken a toll on the general appearance of the landscaping. Weeds love rain! The turf grasses in the Village thrive in warm seasons and, because cold conditions accompanied the rain, the grass has remained dormant while the weeds have thrived. With such frequent rain, the soil has remained too soft to mow without the lawn mowers causing permanent damage to the turf. To make matters worse, crews need at least three days without precipitation to apply weed killers to the turf or shrub beds.
The Landscaping Department is aware of these issues and is taking steps to catch up on all the work necessary to make the Village look beautiful again. The department has acquired additional mowers and, with a relatively clear forecast for next week, will mow the entire Village beginning this Monday. Following the mowing, staff will vigorously attack the weeds in both the turf and shrub beds. The department has contracted additional workers to help staff crews cover more area at a quicker pace.
The past summer’s watering restrictions halted turf repair, because new seeds need additional water to germinate. Staff will take advantage of the damp environment to begin reseeding some of the turf that needs help before the hot summer months roll in again.
Please keep in mind, even with additional crews, staff has over 650 acres to cover. It will take time to catch up. Please be patient and thank the crews as they work extra hard to make the Village landscaping beautiful again.

Nowruz is the national New Year festivity celebrated in Iran, Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, and throughout Central Asia. The first day of the Iranian calendar falls on the March equinox, the first day of spring, which this year was March 20. It is a springtime celebration whose activities symbolize rebirth and the link between humans and nature. The Iranian poet Saadi (1210-1291) wrote “Awaken, the morning Nowruz breeze is showering the garden with flowers.”
Nowruz itself, which is Farsi for “new day,” is steeped in ancient myths and fiction, as well as traditions and symbolism. Preparations begin weeks before the start of spring, including housecleaning and growing sabzeh (wheat, barley, mung bean or lentils) in a dish. The dish is placed on the Haft-seen table, which is the focus of Nowruz observance. It is joined by six other symbolic items that start with the Persian letter “seen” or S. They include:
The Haft-seen spread also includes other items such as a Persian poetry book by Hafez, a mirror symbolizing reflection, colored eggs for fertility and goldfish in a bowl to represent life.
