Golf Course Maintenance Report

Were you aware that our facilities have dress codes? None of the dress codes are burdensome, however, they do help to maintain a pleasant environment for all.

t-shirt or conservative tank top, workout style shorts or pants and gym shoes that are securely fastened to the foot are required at all times in the fitness room.

Golfers must dress modestly and appropriately at all times while on the courses. For men, shirts with collars, turtlenecks or mock turtlenecks are required. Denims are not permitted. Soft spikes are required at all times on the courses.

Swimwear is not permitted in the restaurants. Tennis clothes are acceptable until 4:00 pm. Golf shoes can cause the wearer to slip, so if worn in the restaurants, the wearer assumes the risk. Resort casual is required in the Clubhouse dining room from 4:00 pm until closing and for the Sunday Buffet.

           Mosquitoes

There have been some reports of mosquito activity around IronOaks. These calls have been localized, which tells your HOA staff these insects are coming from water features, pools and potted plants containing standing water. This sounds harsh, however, all water areas on IronOaks common property, including the golf courses, are void of mosquito larva.

We're coming to you, for help to rid us of this insect which can potentially be a health hazard. All of us need to police our property for standing water or untreated water features. While our staff is on the lookout for breeding sites, it's not possible to see behind block walls that surround some homes. 

If you see a potential hazard in a fellow neighbor's yard, we ask you to please speak with them about it. If you do not feel comfortable or this person is away, please generate a comment card or contact the IronOaks Facilities dept.

Strange as it may sound, a small swimming pool can generate 4000 mosquitoes per night. A bird bath is said to generate 200 per night. A pet's water dish around 20 per night. These insects will generally breed and stay near the location they were born. The mosquito's life cycle is not long.  If we remove the breeding site they will either die off, or go elsewhere looking for a new home where they can breed.
