NEW BEGINNINGS
WYATT KOTARY
Dear Members,
First off, thank you so much for your support in my first few months as your new Director of Golf Maintenance. I am beyond grateful for everything and everyone here at the club. My first few months have been eventful to say the least and I am extremely excited to make my mark on this beautiful golf course.
With that being said, I hope everyone escaped through the cold and snowy weather we had for the past couple months and is ready for the spring. (I know I am.) We have a lot of projects planned for the transition to spring time including
more drainage/irrigation additions, rock wall restoration, weed control applications and much more.
I am looking forward to what will be the best season yet for The Ledges and hope you all are too. Nothing gets me and my staff more excited than seeing the grass start to green up and the weather start to warm up. Can’t wait to see you all out there.
Superintendent of Golf and Grounds, Wyatt Kotary
