Synergy n., pl., -gies.
1. The interaction of two or more agents or forces so that their combined effect is greater than the sum of their individual effects.
Today we are trying to take advantage of the plentiful sunlight, warm air temperatures, and generous soil moisture by applying a soluble fertilizer to the greens to help shorten the healing time from aeration. Each by itself does not grow turf, but together, these combine to provide a physical and nutrient rich environment to “push” the turf to its maximum, and we are taking advantage of this synergy the best that we can!

About Me
- Ken Thompson, Golf Course Superintendent
- I came to work at Greate Bay in 1983 as the assistant superintendent after interning three years at Merion Golf Club in Ardmore PA, where I took part in preparing it for the 1981 USGA US Open Championship. In 1985 I was promoted to be Greate Bay's Superintendent. In 1987 I left Greate Bay to oversee the grow in of Stone Harbor Golf Club, and continued on there as the superintendent until 2002. At that time, I returned here to Greate Bay, with the goal to continually improve it's condition, and it is proving to be the most rewarding time of my career!
