Palm Valley Country Club Golf Updates
TURF TALK
The greens on the Championship course are continuing to fill in and recover from the aerification. The 10th green is taking longer to recover due to the morning shade created by the surrounding palm trees and ficus trees.
The idea of cutting a temporary green during this process was considered.. This was not done due to the fact the green has begun to aggressively grow as well as, the temporary green would take time to become playable. The limited foot traffic from play at this time will not hinder the Bermuda Grass growth. Therefore the temporary green was not cut.
With the greens recovering the mowing heights have been lowered back to 1/8” and will remain there for the summer. Topdressing will continue on an as needed basis going forward to control thatch and aid in ball roll.
The greens expansion is under way and will continue for most of the summer. The actual green cut has been put in and is turning yellow due to scalping. The yellow areas will recover and turn green over time. There will be an aggressive top-dress and fertilizer program during this process.
We like to thank you for your patience with this process. The course conditions are updated frequently at the Golf Shop.
FOOD for THOUGHT
Our Summer Saturday Night Themed Dinners are back!

Bob Hope Chrysler Classic Lodging Available

If you are going to the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic in Rancho Mirage this January, and have not yet made travel plans, try a vacation rental. Vacation rentals / condos make sense for those who are traveling together like: golf buddies, couples, families. Renting a 2 or 3 bedroom condo makes more sense and is economical compared to cramming into a hotel room or renting more than one room, and of course eating every meal out and paying $2.00 for every water and $5 for every coffee. January has been slow in the desert, why not give Palm Valley Country Club vacation rentals a try via BETTER Vacation Rentals.

A Guy's Weekend May Have New Meaning - Golf and a Salt Scrub Dad?
This article came 2 days late to my inbox to make it for father's day, but in truth my father would roll over in his grave at the thought of a spa treatment of golf...but then again he was a man of the 50's not the 21s century. If you happen to have a guy in your life that likes a little pampering with his golf, the desert is the place to do it. Some special packages are outlined below, but they offer services for men all year round.
thedesertsun.com | Let Dad experience relaxation at a spa: "If you want to 'fix' your dad, or even pamper him a bit in time for his special day, consider treating him to one - or more - of these services from local spas, all of which are offering Father's Day specials:
The Renaissance Esmeralda Resort and Spa, 44-400 Indian Wells Lane, Indian Wells, 836-1265
'Men's Diamond Day.'
The Renaissance Spa offers a half-day, $285 treatment which includes a facial, sports massage and men's eucalyptus manicure and pedicure.
The Well Spa at Miramonte, 45-000 Indian Wells Lane, Indian Wells, 341-2200
'The Well Manicured Man.'
The Well will make dad look like he just came back from vacation with a $200, 30-minute Maestro Massage, a 30-minute facial and 30-minute brushed bronzing.
Palm Valley Country Club, 39205 Palm Valley Drive, Palm Desert, 345-2737
Dad can look good at the beach with Palm Valley's 'Dad O' Mine' Restorative Back Facial.
The 60-minute treatment costs $100 for club members and $125 for non-members and includes a cleansing back massage designed to relax and repair any unsightly blemishes.
The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Spa, 71333 Dinah Shore Drive, Rancho Mirage, 328-5955
The Westin Spa is offering a $99 facial and $99 massage designed for men. The facial is meant to lift and tone the skin while the massage relaxes tense muscles and sports injuries."
