To add onto the prevailing wage talk, it's tough on every level. While the contractor is required to pay prevailing wage on the vast majority of public jobs, the ...

At some point in September/October the course will be closed for 1-2 weeks for bridge construction. I will be posting at the course as well. More info available as soon as possible.

Wasps nests on the walkway leading to hole 1 and under the hole 15 tee pad have been sprayed. Mass causalities. Nests razed. Limited survivors. Please report back if the problem persists.

Want a quick entomology lesson?

Some big differences between bees and wasps, and despite how much ...

Project went out to bid. Not sure when the bid opening is. I'm guessing some time in June, which puts this project kicking off sometime around mid to late summer, with substantial completion most likely by the end of fall (might trickle into next year a bit).

Got my hands on the plans. Two tees ...

I assisted the Pawtucket Rec Department with the initial layout and planning of this course and there is one serious underlying issue that needs to be resolved before this project can go forward. A little background first...The project is being funded 50/50 by a RIDEM grant and the City of Pawtucket ...

Limited info, but sounds like a poorly designed pitch and putt. Anyone have a chance to check this out yet?

If you're free this weekend, I'll come up to give you a hand.

I can walk you through how to do it using your phone. PM me if you're interested.

Keeping this short. For a number of reasons, the logistics involved with this are pretty substantial, not nearly enough considering the potential gain (low impact to quality of play compared to other improvements), and really not realistic for a public course. Additionally, most courses I can think ...

Anytime I see a suspicious vehicle at Dacey I walk right over and take a picture of the license plate and car. Its helped me take care of a few mischievous youths...

Sean & Chuck, where exactly is the hornets nest on 18? I went over there last night to take care of it and I couldn't find it.

I cut down all the brush on 7, so the fairway is looking real nice. In the process of doing so I found a hornets test about 15 feet off the tee to the left. I discovered ...

Stihl >>> Husqy. They're more money, but you get a lot more saw. My Stihil MS 290 is bullet proof and I've done a TON of work with it. You're looking at $600 plus though most likely. Don't buy from Home Depot. They sell a lower grade piece of equipment with the same model number (different engines ...

Just a quick reminder about the work days this weekend. I'm moving the start time back to 8:30 both days.

Saturday 8/2 - 8:30 - 12:30

See you at Dacey.

Only a little over a week left to sign up for this tournament. Don't miss the first tourney at Dacey!

Only a little more than 1 week left to sign up for the Trilogy Challenge at Dacey. Don't miss the first tournament at the course! We'll be having a bring-your-own-partner cash doubles round after the Challenge as well.

We need to do some work on the course before the tournament. There will be work ...

Agreed. Everyone has a skill that is helpful in some way, you just have to figure out how to apply it. Chuck, PM me so we can get this rolling.

Work part this Sunday, 6/29 starting at 8am. We'll be starting up on tee construction for the season. All of the tee locations have been dug up and now we need to grade them out and fill them in. Tractor is up and running so I'm planning to begin hauling material tomorrow after work so all we have ...

We'll be having a work party this Saturday, June 14, starting at 8am. We have a lot of clean up work to get done around the course. The Parks Department sent a crew to mow and trim some of the fairways today, but there will still be plenty that needs trimming and mowing. Please bring a weedwacker if ...

League is back this week. 5:15 cards. $6 with additional $1 ace pot. Random dubs on long tees. See you there.

The Parks Department should be able to help next week with the grass and PI on holes 4 and 18. Summer is their busy season and like most municipalities in the current era, they have a lot on their plate with limited resources to accomplish it. Being a free course, it would be great if some of the ...

The North Attleboro Recreation Department has expressed some concerns about people parking along the main road in the park and using the utility road which is signed "DO NOT ENTER" to access the course. When visiting the park and course, please refrain from parking along the main road and DO NOT use ...

New course map posted on the site as well.

Grip it and rip it.

To get to hole 1:

Park in the Petti Field parking lot. Walk 400ft up the road you just drove down to get to the parking lot. Take a right at the fork and follow the road another 250ft. Between sites 7 & 9 there is a path on the right. Follow this path down the hill. This path will intersect another ...

Work on the course Saturday and Sunday this weekend. 8-12 both days. Let's get the course cleared off and ready for those shiny new baskets!

More work on the course coming up this Saturday. We'll be starting at 7 this week. Meet at the lower parking lot by Petti Field. We need more of the same as last week... chainsaws, loppers, pole saws, brush cutters, and most importantly, people. We got 5 holes completely cut last week so if we get a ...
