(Palm City, FL) – Harbour Ridge Yacht & Country Club’s Director of Greens and Grounds and his golf course maintenance team were selected by Sod Solutions as the “2021 Florida Celebration Course of the Year” award recipients. This award is given annually to talented maintenance professionals who display excellence in maintaining Celebration® or Latitude 36® Bermudagrass golf courses and sports fields. The award is presented annually at the Florida Turfgrass Association Conference & Show.

Harbour Ridge Features two 18-hole golf courses; the River Ridge, a Pete & P.B. Dye designed course with tropical landscapes and vistas that can be played from any of five sets of tees, making it accessible for players of all skill levels, and the Golden Marsh, a Bobby Weed-designed course with tropical charm, swaying palms and sweeping vistas. Both courses feature wall-to-wall Celebration Bermudagrass on the tees, roughs, and fairways.

Cann, the Club’s Director of Greens and Grounds for more than 29 years, explained they were looking for turfgrass that over time would aggressively take over any previous Bermuda remnants on the course. Celebration has done that job quite well and exceeded the Club’s expectations.

Congratulations to Tim and his crew!
