GOOD OLD DAYS
golf VOL. 57 August 2008 Number 8 GENERAL MEETING ~ August 20th “Nature Discovery” will be coming in for the Members-Daughters Meeting, to surprise us with live appearances by some of Michigan’s wildlife. GOOD OLD DAYS Saturday August 23rd The presentation will start before the meeting, sometime between 6 and 7pm, so get there early. 10AM to Midnight See Page 7 for more info ~ Work Bees ~ August 22nd & 24th ~ PRESIDENT’S COLUMN It’s that time of year again. Good Old Days is upon us. It’s a great time to be involved in our biggest 1 day event of the year. We will need more member involvement this year than any other year past. Help is needed before, during and after the event. Please join a crew and make it the most successful one we have ever had. Don’t know how to join a crew? Call the club or email me. For the new members we need your help. You can make it successful, get your hours in and become acquainted with other club members. Even if you can only do two hours it will make a difference. It takes a lot of planning and participation to pull this one day event off without a hitch. All day amusement ride presale tickets are $10.00 or $12.00 the day of the event. Get those presale tickets out to your friends and neighbors. This is a great way to recoup our costs. The more we sell before the event the more we make for the club. More events have been added this year, with a DJ playing all day and live bands starting at 8:00 p.m. Bring your lawn chairs and enjoy the day. Do you remember the great times we had camping the weekend of Good Old days? Walking from campfire to campfire, enjoying stories of past Good Old Days, tents hanging in trees, blueberry pancakes for breakfast, watch campers put up tents. This can be most enjoyable. And the little streams of water thru the campgrounds after a heavy rain. Good old fun and great company. Register for your campsite at the bar and enjoy the whole weekend without having to drive home.

We plan to have sessions on Saturdays, August 9th and Sept. 13th. Check in will start at 9:30 AM and shooting will start at 10:00AM. We will end shooting about noon, followed by some clean up/ teardown. The shooting scenarios (stages) will be set up on Outdoor Range #2. This will be an informal shoot meaning that participants will be asked to help set up and teardown the stages as well as the normal match chores. Cost will be our low introductory rate of $5.00. Cowboy attire is strongly encouraged but not required. If you would like more information about Cowboy Action Shooting in general, visit our webpage on the multi-lakes web site, www.multilakes.com. For more information about the shoots contact Dan Campau (aka The Baja Kid) at 734-261-9786 or Ron Davis (aka Boss Wheelwright) at 248-685-1206.

Steve Dulan from MCRGO At meeting night 14 June’s CPL Class August: Mid-Summer Outdoor Work by Marty Zaremba August can be a popular month for vacations and our gardens can suffer because of it. The work of watering, weeding, tying and staking should continue. Cutting of annual flowers and picking ripe vegetables should continue also. Spraying for insects and diseases should be done as needed. There seems to be a lot of Japanese beetles this year. They will chew and lace leaves of garden plants, flower bed plants and ornamental trees. If they multiply unchecked there will be an increase of grubs in the lawn which invites skunks and moles looking to eat them for food. Apply Dursban or Grub-X to the lawn to control the grubs. Container plants need extra care in August. A little plant tending is in order by now. Cut back overgrown plants and replace the ones than have seen better days. Check with your local nursery to see what is available to make a refreshing addition. Container plantings can benefit from refurbishing every month or so. Maintain a regular watering routine. When plants wilt, apply a measured inch of water. This amount will moisten the soil to about 6 inches deep. This is enough for annuals for about a week on heavy soils. This is about half a week on sandy soil. Try not to water again until the soil has dried out. Fertilize annuals with a liquid fertilizer according to the directions on the package. Container plants need regular fertilizing. Most will need fertilizer by now. You can get more flowers from those hanging baskets, if you spray some kind of liquid fertilizer. I like Rapid-Gro or Miracle-Gro. Control insects with Carbaryl (Sevin) or Orthone. Chewing bugs can be controlled with BT (Bacillus Thuiringienis). Little holes in leaves are nothing to worry about. You should worry about disappearing leaves and flowers. If you are going to spray for Japanese beetles, I suggest you spray the chemical Sevin. When Sevin is used there is usually an increase of spider mites. This can be avoided with the addition of an acaracide or miteacide to your spray mix. I suggest you add Kelthane to your Sevin mixture. Kelthane is also good to treat the house plants you moved to the deck or patio. While outside they will almost certainly pick up some red spider mites & Kelthane will prevent you from bringing them into the house and infesting the fragile house plants. Flowers left to go to seed will take energy needed to produce more blooms. So, pruning becomes a continuous but necessary job. Do a little every chance you get, and it will not get ahead of you. If your plants are getting a little leggy again, cut them back. If you can keep your flowers in shape through the heat of August, they will reward you when the cooler weather returns this fall. The harvesting of herbs and vegetables should start this month. Continue to pick broccoli, cucumbers & summer squash. Don’t let them go to flower. Production slows if the squash are left to get extra large. You should dig up the garlic when the leaves start to turn yellow. If it is left in the ground too long, the paper covering will begin to rot. If it does not rain for a week to 10 days, apply 1 inch of water. Water early in the day so that plants dry before dark. If possible, use soaker hoses to keep the foliage dry. Check regularly for aphids, mites, white flies, leaf beetles and soil insects. If radishes, potatoes, or carrots have spots chewed into them, maggots can be blamed. Some herbs are especially susceptible to mites. Both spider mites and the tiny cyclamen mites will affect them. Parsley leaves that curl may have mites. Leaves of other plants with mites will have a dirty look to them, and close examination will reveal webs and the mites themselves on the underside of the leaves. As the temperatures moderate, the grass will resume growth. Mow as needed to keep the grass at the correct height. Established grass should receive 1 inch of water when it begins to wilt. Fertilize at the end of August. If no lawn repairs were needed, use a weed and feed product to eliminate broadleaf weeds. If you are plagued with Ground Ivy better known as (Creeping Charlie) and do not have access to low yield nuclear weapons, use a chemical named Bonide. It kicks Creeping Charlie right in the pants. It contains MCPA, TRICLOPYR and DICAMBA. Besides being on my sub in the Navy, it is the closest I have ever been to nuclear weapons. Skunks and raccoons digging up the lawn are a good indication that grubs are present. Roll back damaged grass to see the grubs. Apply Sevin to control June grubs and adults. Animals feeding in the lawn are seeking insects. Some lawn damage is caused be rabbits grazing. They tend to clip the grass too short & make that area look bad. Squirrels dig holes to bury nuts and seeds. If you put down some sod, make sure the seams are butted tight together. After watering, use a lawn roller to remove extra air and make sure there is good contact with the wet soil. It is possible that spraying for insects isn’t worth it. If there are so few that they do not harm anything, let the natural predators handle them. Ladybird beetles (Ladybugs) and lacewings eat aphids, scales and mealy bugs. Assassin bugs and others feed on soft-bodied insects such as caterpillars. Many flies parasitize insect pests. Wasp and hornets catch insects to feed their young. Spraying insecticides harms the natural predators too. Use the least harmful material if you must spray. Sometimes it is just as easy to snip off a single shoot that is covered with aphids, or to pick off the caterpillar or Japanese beetle as it is to mix and apply a pesticide. Wear gloves to mix chemicals. Wear goggles and a respirator when spraying. August can be very dry. If it is dry, water the shrubs every couple of weeks. Soak them until the water begins to run off. Watch newly planted shrubs. They have small root systems that are struggling to get started. Water them when they need it, but do not drown them. Shrub cuttings taken in June will probably be rooted by the end of August. If you can, you should leave them undisturbed in a cold frame for the cold weather. Trees generally are able to survive on their own in nature. When they are planted out of their natural habitat, they become dependent on us to care for them. Premature fall color in trees is often a sign of trouble. The tree may be overly dry or may have other problems. Often it is a sign of root damage or girdling. If one of your trees is already turning color, examine the root collar at the base of the tree to make sure it is sound. Girdling roots are often the cause of trouble. Sometimes they are visible above the ground, but they may be just below the soil surface. Remove girdling roots. If they are major roots, there may be some loss in the top of the tree. The other choice is to lose the entire tree from girdling. Some parts of our state have an alkaline soil. Pin oaks and Red maples barely survive because of these soils. In our area Pin oaks turn yellow. This can be corrected by the use of iron chelates. Maples will start to yellow because lack of manganese. Iron chelates and manganese can be given to trees by drilling a small hole in the trunk and inserting a plastic plug (Meta Cap) containing the mineral that the trees can not get from the soil. The minerals can be sprinkled on the lawn under the tree and watered in. They can be put in the soil under the tree, by means of drilling holes 3 feet apart and approximately 20 to 30 inches deep. This circle should start at the drip line. The fertilizer spikes that are popular won’t get the job done. They are easy to install, but think about it, they only go down 6 to 10 inches. When rain is scarce, you will have trouble because the spikes will draw the roots to the surface. You should have the fertilizer down at least 20 inches. This will encourage deep root growth where there is a better supply of water in August. 15 ~ Letters to the Editor ~ On June 14 & 15 MLCA hosted the very 1st NRA Women On Target Concealed Pistol License Instructional clinic. 10 Women were presented with Certificates of Completion and are now on their way toward getting their Concealed Pistol License.
