Not sure what day would work for most people but Knob Hill needs some work done for the PFDO.

Most of the stuff is from the blue tees that needs work.

Hole 1 -limbs hanging down before the white tee need trimmed up.
Hole 3- Pathway and limbs from long tee to short tee need trimmed up.
Hole 5 - bushes by long tee need trimmed
Hole 16 - long tee fairway needs some weed whacking (tons of posion ivy)

Also the tee boxes need some work.

If anyone has anytime to do any of this or do any other work they see that needs to be done, let me know.
