Do you get competitive when it comes to golf? We've got just the event for you: our 1st annual Palmetto Dunes Summer Golf Series.
The tournament will run three Saturdays in July, one Saturday at each course, with prizes and bragging rights at stake.
The format will be a shotgun start with a four-man team scramble and team handicap at 20%. The first two tournaments are independent of the championship, and the top two teams from each of the first two tournaments will be re-handicapped based on their scores.
The top two teams will be competing for the Series Grand Championship at the Robert Trent Jones golf course where six teams will be playing to be the grand champions. The rest of the teams will be competing as they did in the first two events at the Arthur Hills golf course and the George Fazio golf course.
Prizes, which will be awarded for low net, closest to the pin and long drive, will include resort gift cards, golf certificates, hotel nights, restaurant discounts and more. The grand prize winners will receive individual and team trophies and custom shirts with the series logo and 2014 champion embroidered on them.
The tournaments start at 9 a.m. on July 12 at Arthur Hills, July 19 at George Fazio and July 26 at Robert Trent Jones. Entry fees are $65 per player or $260 per team and $85 per player or $340 per team for the Jones championship.
What do you think? Can you and your golf buddies bring home the championship trophy? If you'd like to give it a go, you can save $5 by registering online or give us a call at 843-686-9624 for more information. Good luck!
One of the best things about Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort is the opportunity for golfers to experience three 18-hole championship Hilton Head golf courses all at one resort with first tees no more than 5 minutes apart. Designers Robert Trent Jones, George Fazio and Arthur Hills all have established golf courses at our resort and each offers a unique playing experience for the golf lover.
Robert Trent Jones Golf Course
The Jones course is perhaps best known for its oceanfront setting with one of only two oceanfront holes on the entire island. Its layout is immaculate and stunning in its beauty and the view from the famed 10th green is not one that will soon be forgotten (we've even had weddings there!). Jones plays away from the clubhouse until it reaches its famed back-to-back par-5s that play out to the ocean. It's also known to have the most accommodating fairways of the trio of courses, though keep in mind you might lose a ball or two as the course winds its way over the resort's inland lagoon system.
George Fazio Golf Course
We hear a lot that the Fazio course is the most challenging of our courses. It offers the island's only par-70 layout, whose long par-4s, elevated greens and deep bunkers will test all facets of your game. Known as a great course for "faders" of the golf ball, the Fazio course features a unique double green at 11 and 16 that gives you a peek at what many experts believe is the toughest finishing stretch of holes on the island. These are a Fantastic Four featuring three par-4s over 400 yards from the white tees and a par-3 just a step less than 190.
Arthur Hills Golf Course
Lastly, you'll find our Hills course, which is as much a tour of a wildlife sanctuary (keep your eye out for waterfowl and an alligator here or there) as a round of golf with its natural beauty. There are those who say they could play the Hills Course every day and never play it the same way twice with the diversity of strategies presented. PGA Tour star Bryce Molder shot a course-record 60 here while in college, while Tiger Woods took an 8 at the signature 17th, a par-4 that requires a drive and an approach over and around one of the many lagoons on the layout.
At all three courses, you'll find five sets of tees, including family tees, to create an enjoyable, yet challenging round to players of all skill levels. You'll also find three different putting surfaces: Champion Bermuda on the Jones Course, shade-tolerant Diamond Zoysia on the Fazio and TifDwarf Bermuda on the Hills Course.
Which of the courses will you take on? Do you dare try all three and 54 holes on one visit?! Let us know if you take the challenge and how you did!

It's been a good year for this South Carolina beach resort! Palmetto Dunes not only received a number of high profile honors and accolades recognizing everything from our championship Hilton Head golf courses and tennis facilities to our family friendliness and outstanding staff, but we also started several new events that were a great success.
Here's a quick look back at our star-studded 2013:
The Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center was honored to host a number of high-profile state championships for the United States Tennis Association (USTA). In May, seniors from across South Carolina headed to Hilton Head to take home top honors in the USTA South Carolina 40 & Over Championships, formerly known as the Senior Championships. Then in October, we hosted the USTA South Carolina Combo Adult Championships. Our very own Jackie Reynecke, who helped coordinate these events, was also named the South Carolina League Volunteer of the Year for the USTA.
The Tennis Center was featured in the July issue of Tennis Magazine in a large spread about the resort and was recognized again by TennisResortsOnline.com as the No. 9 Top Tennis Resort in the world and No. 4 Top Junior Tennis programs in the world. Plus, the users of TripAdvisor named the Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center the No. 1 attraction in Hilton Head.
Our golf courses are always wonderful to play with their varied attributes and amazing layouts, but they were especially regarded this year. The Arthur Hills golf course got a shout-out from Golf Digest magazine as a top Hilton Head course, in an article that also designated the island as a Best Buddies Trip Destination. PGA.com selected the famous oceanfront No. 10 hole at the Robert Trent Jones golf course a "South Carolina dream hole" and we couldn't agree more!
We also launched a brand new golf app for the iPhone and Android, which now has thousands of users. Using your phone, you can check yardage information, book your tee time, set up leader boards and order food at our golf grilles so it's hot and ready when you finish your round. Download it by searching for Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort on your favorite app store.
New Events at Shelter Cove Harbour
Several events made their debut at Shelter Cove Harbour this year to great acclaim. Taste on the Harbour kicked off in March. Due to the event's success, we hosted the event again in October, offering featured menus, drink specials and tastings from Shelter Cove Harbour restaurants on select nights combined with live music from local island bands.
Additionally, Parrot Palooza joined our already very popular HarbourFest summertime event, which celebrated 25 years. Shannon Tanner and the Oyster Reefers, a Jimmy Buffet tribute band, entertained attendees on Friday evenings with island style music as they danced and sang the night away while the sun set over Broad Creek.
Capstone Award
The finish off the year with a bang, Travel + Leisure magazine named Palmetto Dunes to its Top 25 World's Best Family Getaways in its November issue. This made our resort the highest-ranking in South Carolina. The awards are based on a survey of the magazine's readers. "Whether it's reeling in a trophy redfish, learning how to properly swing a golf club or riding the waves on a surfboard, Palmetto Dunes has so much to offer families year round," said Brad Marra, assistant vice president of resort operations for Palmetto Dunes.
What's coming next year? More good things! Palmetto Dunes will be launching a brand new device-responsive website, using the latest online booking technology and designed for ease of use by our wonderful guests. For golfers, the Jones course will be adding new GPS-enabled touch screen systems for all golf carts, which offers course fly-overs, yardage, hole information and more. There's so much more in store… you'll just have to come visit us to see it all!
For more information about vacationing at Palmetto Dunes, visit us at www.palmettodunes.com or call us at 866-744-7558 to get started booking your spring or summer Hilton Head getaway.
If you've ever played our Hilton Head golf courses, then you know just how gorgeous they are with their lush greens, live oaks around every corner and even views of the Atlantic on the Robert Trent Jones course. But have you ever seen our courses from above? We doubt it!
We've created new 3-D animated "flyovers" of each of our South Carolina golf courses to give you a bird's eye view before you hit the greens. Simply go to the individual web page for each course listed below and click on the link to view the flyover.
Once you're on the flyover, choose which hole you've like to soar above and get ready to fly! Each view shows you par for the hole, as well as the distance from each of the tees. Pause at any point to take a more detailed look.
Watching these flyovers is helpful for golfers, because it shows you all in one glance the obstacles you'll face at each hole and allows you to formulate a plan of how to get there.
Don't forget to check out our Hilton Head webcam at the Robert Trent Jones course, as well, to see real-time, on-the-ground action at the golf course. Both of these options are great ways to be "on the course" even when you're stuck at your desk.
Be sure to browse some of our amazing fall golf packages that let you play golf at all three of our championship courses, improve your game at our Palmetto Dunes Golf Academy and enjoy other activities like fishing and biking.
Let us know what you think of the new flyovers and we hope to see you teeing off soon!
We love kids here at Palmetto Dunes and we like to keep them busy with our many kid-friendly activities like surfing, tennis, kayaking, swimming and fishing. But golf is especially near and dear to our heart since we have three amazing and varied Hilton Head golf courses all inside our beautiful resort.
PGA America and the National Golf Course Owners' Association have declared July Family Golf Month in an effort to promote golf as a fun, family recreational activity that lets you spend uninterrupted quality time together.
"Getting the family together for a round of golf, whether it's nine or 18 holes, is a great outdoor activity that gives parents the opportunity to have uninterrupted conversations and quality time with their children," says PGA of America President Ted Bishop. "It's also a great way for the entire family to enjoy golf's health and wellness benefits while creating memories for a lifetime."
So how can your family enjoy golf at our South Carolina golf resort? Ah, let us count the ways!
Family Golf School
We offer three-day, two-hour private golf lessons designed specifically for your family at our Hilton Head Family Golf School. We'll meet everyone at exactly their skill level and help them improve their game. We love this video showing a mom and her daughters during their Family Golf School lesson!
Kids Play Free
To encourage our golfers to teach the game to their kids, we let kids play free at the Robert Trent Jones Hilton Head golf course and the Arthur Hills golf course after 4 p.m. with an adult paying regular rate. This is a great opportunity to expose your kids to the game and enjoy some one-on-one time with each other!
Junior Tees
We've also installed permanent junior tees on our Robert Trent Jones golf course, and the George Fazio course caters to juniors with markings of 150 yards or less. This makes it easier and more fun for junior golfers!
Junior Golf Lessons
We also have a variety of Hilton Head golf lessons for juniors, including our Little Swingers program designed for ages 3-7. Director of Instruction Doug Weaver teaches the game of golf while singing songs with the kids.
Our Junior Golf Clinics for ages 6-18 focus on golf fundamentals like golf shots, etiquette and rules. Weaver covers three different shots every day, and four-time attendees are rewarded with a Junior Golf School Manual.
Lastly, if you have a junior gofer who's top of the class, enroll him or her in the Advanced Juniors Classes for ages 8-18. These kids get to play with a pro and get instruction as they go!
Make your love of golf a family affair at Palmetto Dunes! To sign up for any of the above golf lessons, schools or clinics or for any questions, please call us at 866-744-7558.
The Arthur Hills golf course has received plenty of accolades over the years from 2009 South Carolina Golf Course Owners' Association Course of the Year to being awarded 4.5 stars by Fodors Golf Digest. Our popular course has one more jewel to add to its crown this year as the South Carolina Golf Course Ratings Panel named it to their 2013 Best You Can Play list.
Criteria used in judging include, routing, variety, strategy, equity, memorability, aesthetics and the golfer's experience.
"There are so many outstanding courses that you're really splitting hairs in the voting," says Michael Whitaker, the panel's executive director. "When you think about the number of really good golf courses in this state and reduce that number to 30, it's a daunting task. Some of the older courses have stood the test of time, some have improved with some relative small tweaks and others that have undergone renovation or restoration to their original design features have increased in quality."
The Arthur Hills Hilton Head golf course, where collegiate stars like Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson honed their talents and a favorite of former President Bill Clinton, takes full advantage of the natural beauty of Hilton Head Island.
Its spectacular layout represents a careful blend of beauty and challenge. Stands of palmetto trees line the graceful fairway and it's built on a series of rolling dunes. The Arthur Hills Course presents many opportunities for off-balance lies, while ocean breezes add to the challenge. Ten holes on the water further encourage precision play and the course plays 6,651 yards from the back tees.
"We are thrilled that the experts have once again recognized the Arthur Hills Course as one of the most popular layouts in South Carolina," says Brad Marra, vice president of resort operations for Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort. "We offer three golf courses that provide our guests a wide variety of looks and challenges, and we are proud of them all. It is pleasing to know that the game's connoisseurs agree."
Have you played the Hills course? What's your favorite hole?
We also have two other championship Hilton Head golf courses, which give you entirely different experiences all at one resort. The Robert Trent Jones Course has one of only two oceanfront holes on the island, and the George Fazio Course is known as one of the island's most challenging courses with its bunkers and water hazards. Be sure to check out all three!
We offer a variety of Hilton Head golf packages for all levels of golfers that include lessons, multi-course play and multiple rounds. Call us at 866-744-7558 for more information or to book a package or tee time or fill out our online form to get a quote request for a group golf outing.
Beautiful weather, beautiful greens, an early tee time and still plenty of sunlight left in the day to walk the beach, rent a bike or play another round! Sounds perfect, doesn't it? That's what your fall getaway to can be to Hilton Head's Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort. With temps in the 70s through October, clear blue skies and sunny days with decreasing humidity, fall is just about perfect for your Hilton Head golf vacation.
Tee Time
Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort has not one, not two, but three world-class golf courses on the property, so you don't even have to venture outside the resort to tee-off from three different, challenging courses. Each distinguished course was designed to make the most of your abilities … and then some.
For example, the Robert Trent Jones Oceanfront Course is one of only two oceanfront holes on the entire island. Its 10th hole, a par-5, offers a beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean. Don't let this beauty fool you, however. The course is tough and was rated among the best courses in the Southeast by readers of Golfweek magazine.
The George Fazio Course is the only par-70 golf course on the island and is considered Hilton Head's most challenging championship course. Fazio designed the course with plenty of bunkers and water hazards to make sure you use all the skills our pros can teach you! The course demands a combination of long play and precise golf shots and ranks among America's top 100 golf courses.
The Arthur Hills Course was built on a series of rolling dunes and is framed by palmetto and live oak trees. It offers many opportunities for off-balance lies and has 10 holes on the water, which means you need to take into account the ocean breeze before you swing.
Have Some Fish and Chips
We know a few people who enjoy the peace of fishing combined with the challenge of golf, and we agree. These two activities are the perfect complement.
So this fall, we're offering our "Fish & Chips" package that lets you take advantage of the amazing redfish abundant in our waters this time of year with an inshore fishing charter along with two rounds of golf per person. It also includes a $100 gift card for dining at the resort, including our new Big Jim's BBQ, Burgers & Pizza restaurant at the Jones course, a sleeve of golf balls, $50 gift card per person at our Hilton Head pro shops and a two-hour kayak rental to take in our lovely lagoon. Call us at (866) 744-7558 for more about this package.
We also offer a variety of other golf vacation packages from monthly memberships to unlimited golf and more.
Take a Lesson
Take some time to improve your golf skills this fall with a lesson or two from one of our golf pros. Our fall schedule at the Palmetto Dunes Golf Academy offers a range of options from the novice to the expert golfer.
Our Director of Golf Doug Weaver is a big proponent of the power of the mind when it comes to the game of golf. Take his Mental Golf Workshop and learn how to concentrate like a pro. It also offers a pre-class evaluation of your mental golf style. Ladies can work on putting, chipping, pitching and full swing at our Ladies Only golf workshop.
Need help generating more power? Take our Power and Distance class and learn about the five major power and distance moves and which you need to focus on. Enjoy watching the free-spirited Bubba Watson? We'll teach you how to model his playful attitude and show you how he makes those crazy shots in our Bubba Golf workshop.
And Then Some
In addition to golf, Palmetto Dunes has a host of other activities for you and your group: fishing, tennis, biking and lots of activities and events. You name it, we probably offer it! If you have more questions about what Palmetto Dunes offers for fall getaways in Hilton Head, visit our website or call us at (866) 744-7558.
Here at Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, a top South Carolina golf resort, we can think of many reasons for you and your family or group to come play golf courses in Hilton Head any time of year. But for this blog post, we've boiled it down to our top 5 reasons. Drum roll please:
No. 1 – Three Varied Golf Courses
A lot of our guests love that they don't have to leave Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort to play on three different and very challenging Hilton Head golf courses. Our courses fit the mood of any golfer whether you're looking for more of a challenge, more of a view or a more relaxed and fun game.
The Robert Trent Jones Oceanfront Course is one of only two oceanfront holes on the island. Its 10th hole, a par-5, offers a beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean. Don't let this beauty fool you, however. The course is tough and was rated among the best courses in the Southeast by readers of Golfweek magazine. The Jones Oceanfront Course plays 6,122 yards from the middle white tees.
The George Fazio Course is the only par-70 golf course on the island and is considered Hilton Head's most challenging championship course. Fazio designed the course with plenty of bunkers and water hazards to keep players on their toes. The course demands a combination of long play and precise golf shots and ranks among America's top 100 golf courses. The Fazio plays 6,239 yards from the middle white tees.
The Arthur Hills Course was built on a series of rolling dunes, framed by palmetto and live oak trees, offering many opportunities for off-balance lies. Ten holes on the course are on the water, which means you need to watch out for ocean breezes. Graceful yet challenging is a great way to describe this course, which plays 6,122 yards from the middle white tees.
No. 2 - Hilton Head Weather
The weather in Hilton Head is balmy and sub-tropical year-round, which allows for allows for all types of outdoor activities throughout the year. We don't slow down when things cool off a little around here. In fact, our three golf courses heat up with travelers who enjoy playing golf on Hilton Head in 70-degree temps through October and in the 60s through December. While January is our coldest month, with a temperature range of 40-59 degrees, that's still perfect for snowbirds who flock to our sunny golf courses during winter wearing shorts and T-shirts. And if you want to come in the summer, no worries. Read reason No. 3:
No. 3 – Air-Conditioned Golf Carts
When you're playing one of the most popular golf courses in South Carolina during the balmiest days of summer, it's such a treat to retreat to air conditioned golf carts. In fact, our entire fleet of golf carts is air-conditioned. Just load your clubs, hop in and cool off with a cold beverage as you ride in luxury to the next hole. Arrive refreshed and ready to make par. Ahhh….
No. 4 - Segway Golf Transporters
Spice up your mode of transport from green to green by renting one of our Segway Golf Transporters. We're the only Hilton Head Island resort who offers them! A great open-air alternative to golf carts, these fun yet practical rides can reach speeds of more than 12 MPH. Our Segway X2 all-terrain vehicle is wider with deeply treaded tires. They're easy to operate and maneuver and allow for superior preservation of the golf course.
No. 5. Beauty
Palmetto Dunes lives up to the reputation as one of the most popular South Carolina golf resorts and one of the finest resort destinations in the world. It's garnered the attention of such respected travel resources as Travel + Leisure Family, Forbes, Fodor's Golf Digest Places to Play, Frommer's The Carolinas and Georgia, Golf Magazine and more. All of these resources tout the natural beauty of the resort, as well as its amenities.
Palmetto Dunes is picturesque at every turn from our pristine beach to the 11-mile inland lagoon system that winds through the resort, to the superbly sculpted golf courses framed by palmetto and live oak trees. The resort truly showcases the natural beauty of the island.

Great golf
We have three renowned courses, each one designed by a hero in the world of golf:

The 10th hole of this par-five course is one of only two oceanfront holes on the island! The rest of the course ambles along our 11-mile lagoon system. Here's a fun fact: We book more rounds at the Jones course than any other course on the entire island!
The George Fazio Course is definitely a challenging choice with its varied bunkers and water hazards. The Fazio is ranked in the nation's top 100 courses and is the only par-70 course on Hilton Head.
The Arthur Hills Course was ranked 4.5 stars by Fodor's Golf Digest. It has been played by Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, who no doubt enjoyed its careful mix of beauty and challenge. It's positioned on a series of dunes, which presents many opportunities for off-balance lies. In addition, the course offers 10 holes on the water and the ocean breeze adds to the challenge.
Great prices
When it comes to pricing, Palmetto Dunes offers high quality and ways to save. For example, book in advance and save up to 50% off the Resort Golf Rate, which is already very affordable. We also offer multi-round rates, junior programs and a 30-day golf pass, as well as an array of golf packages.

We know that many of you are experiencing chilling temperatures, snowy skies and icy roads. While we can't make it summer any earlier and we can't raise the temperatures to the lovely mild days we're experiencing here on Hilton Head, we can give you live updates and visuals of the beach every day! We have two webcams set up on the resort, one at The Dunes House and the other at The Robert Trent Jones Golf Course.
If you're in need of a little golf action on a cold day, check out the webcam at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Course. This beautiful course was renovated in 2002 to reshape fairways, trees, greens and bunkers. We were also able to improve the natural draining of the course by linking it to our 11-mile lagoon system. The Jones Course has 11 holes that run by the lagoon and 10th hole has a spectacular view of the ocean! This webcam is sure to make you want to pack up your clubs and head down to Hilton Head.
If you've had a rough week and need a minute of rest and relaxation from work, then check out The Dunes House webcam. The Dunes House is known for their awesome fish tacos and amazing view of the ocean. This webcam is situated in the perfect place to give you a view of guests enjoying lunch and watching the waves rolling in! If you're a romantic, check this webcam on the weekends for a chance to see a wedding happening live on the beach!
We want to bring you a little piece of Hilton Head and all that Palmetto Dunes has to offer whenever you want it by maintaining these webcams. The best part is the next time you're here you can tell your family or friends to tune in to see what a great time you're having on vacation!
While winter may slow down most of the country, visitors to Hilton Head can stay active no matter the time of year. With daytime temperatures averaging between 50-60 degrees during the winter, it's great weather to get outside and play a round of golf with us here at Palmetto Dunes.
This winter we're offering two new golf packages and programs that will not only help improve your game but will bring a little piece of Canada to our Island.
If you're looking to improve your golf game while the weather is milder, the Palmetto Dunes Golf Academy is offering a new "Five Ways to Better Golf" assessment and coaching package. Led by Doug Weaver, Palmetto Dunes' director of golf instruction, guests receive assessments of the following five systems of their golf game: mental, full swing technical, short game technical, equipment and fitness.
Hailing from Granby, Quebec, Michel Dion, joins our golf team this winter to help with instruction. Winter brings many of our Canadian golfers to Hilton Head and Dion's experience and French-speaking abilities will bring a whole new dynamic to Palmetto Dunes.
Spend your winter with us improving every aspect of your golf game, and we'll have you looking like a star in time for spring and summer!
Not sure what to get the golf lover on your list? Let Palmetto Dunes help with our holiday gift guide! Our first suggestion: the new TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Iron!
This iron delivers distance with progressive top lines and a thinner face. They've also designed shafts specifically for each head and every iron has been reinvented by TaylorMade. Another impressive upgrade is that the weight of the club is lower and wider for a higher level of forgiveness. You'll never hear the golfer in your life complain about turf-drag or shortened ball flight with this club, reaffirming that you bought them the right holiday gift.
All of our golf pros are really enjoying the new TaylorMade Burner 2.0 Iron and would recommend it to any level of golfer. You can call us now 843.785.1136 or stop by our proshops for more information or to pick one up. We can't promise that your golfer's clothes will be wrinkle free, but we can promise that this iron will be a welcomed addition to their golf bag!
The Arthur Hills course, ranked 4.5 stars by Fodor's Gold Digest, features a series of rolling dunes, as well 10 holes on the water. Named the South Carolina Course of the Year in 2009, the course was designed to encourage precision.
The dunes create many opportunities for off-balance lies and the ocean breezes present an additional challenge. TravelGolf.com says, "There is very little sand on the course, making the hazards a little harder to pick out. Beware the swales, tight fairways and lots of water."
Most people recognize the Hills course by the Leamington Lighthouse that sits on the 15th hole. The lighthouse, built sometime between 1879 and 1880, was part of a navigational system of lights guiding ships into Port Royal Sound. It's the only historic lighthouse on Hilton Head and one of only a few surviving in the state of South Carolina.
Don't forget we serve breakfast and lunch at the grill and we dish up a mean New England Clam Chowder that you have to try. We hope to see you all out at the Hills course and if you have any questions ask for our head pro there, Clark (he's wonderful).
When you vacation at Palmetto Dunes, you'll be hard pressed to find yourself bored. But just in case there's a moment that finds you wondering what to do next, we have 5 great don't-miss activities that are part of the ultimate Palmetto Dunes experience. Stay tuned for future posts on more top activities at the resort!

winter battery care
Now that my '51 cub is parked for the winter I have purchased a "Schumacher Speed Charge Maintainer," 1.5 amps, to try and save the battery. I have been advised to just leave it plugged in for the winter but the instruction manual says not to over charge the battery. What does this mean? Can I leave it plugged in until April? Does it make any difference if I leave the termimals attached while the charger is attached?
Re: winter battery care
It is a Battery Maintainer. It was designed to provide a trickle charge when required to keep the battery fully charged as long as the maintainer is connected. I have left mine on all winter and never had a problem with either my 2 6 volt batteries or my 12 volt battery. I intend to put my JD on the 12 volt maintainer as soon as it goes away for the winter in a couple of weeks. I keep Granny my '47 on a maintainer all winter as well as Ellie my '48. The only time the maintainer is turned off with Ellie is when I am using Ellie to plow snow but is reconnected when I put her back in the barn.
Looks like the models that I have.
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
Re: winter battery care
Just me. I would start the tractor and drive it around bit, once a month or every 6 weeks. Depending on the weather. That's what I do with my tractors that are not frequently used during the winter. Batteries hold up.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: winter battery care
Thanks guys and I agree, starting it up a couple of times a winter is probably a good idea.
Re: winter battery care
I agree with Eugene, if your electrical charging system is working properly and your battery is good, you should not need a trickle charger if you start and run your Cub periodically.
Re: winter battery care
This is by no means the ideal solution-- but it is better than nothing. 12 volt maintainers are easy to find-- 6 volt units are not easy to find. If you have two 6 volt tractors, park them near each other, make light duty jumper cables of 14 gauge wire and connect the 6 volt batteries in series for use with a 12 volt maintainer. It is not necessary to remove any battery cables. The tractors are available for use within seconds.
Luck favors those who are prepared
Re: winter battery care
The Schumacher Charger/Maintainer works for either 6 or 12 volts.
Re: winter battery care
I saw a battery tending system which really impressed me.
It was in a pole building storing automobiles and tractors. 12 volt vehicles lined up side by side down one row, 6 volts across the isle down the other.
Above each row of vehicles were two half inch copper pipes mounted to the rafters on plastic standoffs.
The pipes were mounted parallel to each other about a foot apart with each vehicle having its own set of custom length leads with inline diodes to prevent backfeeding clamped to the bus bars. 14 gauge wire if I remember.
The bars were connected to chargers on Intermatic industrial timers which powered up the chargers once every 24 hours for a short period of time at a calculated rate of charge.
Additionally, a battery rack was located near the chargers tending some boat batteries.
This system works well, an actual commercially manufactured tending system for a multi vehicle hookup like this was reported to me as being cost prohibitive, the owner determined he would be money ahead to buy a battery now and again.
I've considered duplicating this system myself but is still penned on the project list.
Re: winter battery care
Two of my Schumacher's are 6 volt and 12 volt. The only 12 volt battery maintainer I have is one on clearance from Princess - for $15.00 bucks a cheap insurance package. The Schumacher's are usually around $39.00 - not cheap but when they come on sale it can be from $19.99 to $29.99 so that is when I get them - hopefully for the $19.99 price.
The reason I use them is pretty basic - the weather. Up here it can get cold. Not as cold as when I grew up - back then -60F was normal in Northern Ontario. Here is gets to -35C a number of times during the winter with wind chills even colder. It is also a damp cold... brrrrrr. But I love winter so that is cool One of the things we have always had to deal with was trying to start our cars/trucks etc., in the winter. Usually had battery blankets, block heaters hooked up to help keep the battery warm and the oil fluid. Warm batteries and warm blocks make starting a whole lot less difficult.
Battery maintainers do something similar. It keeps the battery at full charge and whilst doing that there is circulation in the cells which helps keep the battery warmer. Inside a barn out of the wind, this is a big help. Before getting the maintainers I would have to put the battery charger on to help start Ellie. Since I have the maintainers, I no longer worry about difficult starting in the winter. Pull the starter and poof, Ellie is running. Of course this is predicated on all the other start factors being in good shape. I haven't had a no start issue due to a battery in about 3 years now since I have the maintainers.
They are good insurance, don't use much power, cost little and best of all they work. Oh yeah, for those of us with CRS - we don't have to try to remember to go out and start all of our tractors once a week or so.....
Of course as in all things this is JIMHO.
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
Re: winter battery care
Here is the one I have couple of. For $20 it does the job. I also have a couple older ones that look more like the Speedcharge but had a manual switch for 6/12 volts. It is unclear to me what the extra $5 gets you with the Speedcharge. They are both good for 1.5 amps.

Former Detroit Lion Reggie Rogers was found dead at a friend's home in Seattle, according to the Seattle Times. LINK: Click here to view the report from the Seattle Times>>Rogers was drafted by the Lions in the first round of the 1987 draft. In his second season with the team he was involved in a car crash in Pontiac that killed three local teenagers. Rogers was drunk behind the wheel and served time in prison, convicted of negligent homicide. After serving prison time he then went to play two more NFL seasons with Buffalo and Tampa Bay. He continued to struggle with legal issues and was charged with five more DUIs over the years, for a total of six. Earlier this month he was also charged with domestic violence in the state of Washington, where he lived.He was 49 years old.

Eagles head coach Andy Reid says he is still evaluating every area of the Eagles, and more changes could happen before they return to the field a week from Sunday.
If you could make one change, with the roster or coaches, what would it be? (Let's assume for a second that Michael Vick will remain the starting quarterback at least for another week.)
That was the first question for Thursday's face-off pitting 97.5 "The Fanatic's" Jon Marks against "Good Day" senior producer Tom Louden.
The Eagles need seven wins in their final 10 games to get 10 wins for the season and pretty much assure themselves of a playoff spot. So, we set the over and under at six games and debated that, too.
Join FOX 29's Mike Jerrick and the Good Day Philadelphia team for a tasty night of yummy treats benefiting local youth.

- Polar Caps

Ok. Let's start by stating the obvious. Antarctica's not what you'd class a typical destination for the annual family skiing holiday - unless you're the Fienneses that is.
The average summer temperature here is -30 degrees C. Double that in winter. So you'll need to pack a few extra layers. There's a particularly persistent breeze too (wind speeds of up to 320 kmph / 200mph are common) which, when combined with snow showers, tend to result in wall-to-wall white-outs.
On the bright side, the place is pretty much snow-sure. And with the highest peak at 4,897m (16,066 feet), Antartica has one of the best vertical descents of any ski resort - provided you can get to the top in the first place of course. There aren't many lifts down here.
Snowboarding in Antarctica is a pretty new thing. As far as we're aware, only two people have successfully ridden Vinson Massif. A couple more have skiied down it.
But Antarctica's not just about skiing or snowboarding. There's abundant wildlife here, dramatic scenery, towering majestic icebergs and a surreal stillness unlike anywhere on earth. Your days off mountain will be just as memorable.
Getting here
Antarctica's not particularly easy to get to. You're looking at a seven hour flight from Punta Arenas in Chile to Patriot Hills, and you'll need to charter a Twin Otter from there to the Ellsworth Mountains.

Andy Mcready employs six people full time in Pulaski County at his lumber and storage businesses. All of them this year, are covered under a company health plan. He hopes to continue covering them next year, even though he will not be required to by law, but says he is unclear whether he will be able to afford it.
"That unknown is what's costing our local businesses the ability to expand and add employees," said Mcready.
Federal and state health leaders spent an hour answering questions from people like Mcready Monday afternoon. Joanne Grossi, Regional Director for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and Virginia Health and Human Resources Secretary Dr. Bill Hazel provided some answers.
If you have fewer than 50 employees, you're not required to, but if you choose to and we hope you do, there is going to be a separate marketplace set up for you, where you can have your employees go in to purchase health insurance. If you do that, we'll give you a tax credit of up to 50 percent to help you buy that health insurance," said Grossi.
"I think that everyone should be prepared for this to be a little bit of a bumpy process because it's all new and it's going to take a little time to work out as we sort out who will get what coverage, who pays for what coverage," said Hazel.
It is just as important, Grossi added, to encourage your employees to make healthier choices and stay out of doctor's offices altogether if they can.
"Work site wellness is so important. How we encourage our employees to eat right, to exercise," said Grossi.
So while people like Mcready got some much needed answers about the impact the Affordable Care Act will have on their business, they have until open enrollment in October to figure it all out.

Sweet shop set to open on Penarth Pier
12:46pm Thursday 27th February 2014 in News
A TRADITIONAL sweet shop is set to open on Penarth Pier this weekend.
The sweet shop, based in the former Tourist Information Centre at the entrance to Penarth Pier, will be officially opened by Penarth Town Mayor Neil Thomas on Sunday, March 2, at noon.
The shop will be run by independent businessman Phil Rees, who already owns the traditional sweet shop in Windsor Arcade in Penarth town centre.

Wouldn't it be great if every car on the road could talk to each other, helping to avoid driver mistakes? Well, the technology already exists.
There's a bank of LED red lights at the base of the windshield that reflect up into the glass. An alarm also goes off that will get your attention.
It's projected that by the end of the decade, all new vehicles will have this technology, which can prevent 81 percent of all police-reported crashes involving unimpaired drivers.
Say someone is running a red light or stop sign. You get a warning so you can stop.
Or how about a wet parking lot full of black-ice? The vehicle-to-vehicle technology would warn you about that. Same thing if it were to happen on a bridge.
"What we're now talking about is wireless technology that looks in all different directions along with GPS," explains Andy Sarkasian of the Ford Motor Company.
You get a warning if a car is in your blind spot and you start to move over. These smarter cars use WiFi and GPS to track both vehicles.
What about hacking or anti-hacking technology? Could somebody in China or Russia hit a button and we have 10,000 accidents all at once?
That's exactly what the engineers are working on...to make sure it's safe and secure from hacking as well as maintaining privacy.
Ford is the first automaker to build a functional prototype. Smarter cars mean safer roads... bring em' on!
The new vehicle to vehicle technology also gives you real-time traffic data, helping to save time and fuel. It's estimated to save more than four billion gallons of gas a year nationwide.

E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Areas of Specialization:
* 20th Century Hispanic Literature and Culture
* Applied Spanish Linguistics: Teaching Methodology, Second Language Acquisition, Spanish Phonology
My Philosophy of Language Teaching:
Learning foreign languages enables students not only to gain a deeper understanding of diverse languages and cultures, but also encourages them to analyze and evaluate their own culture and language. This self-evaluation is necessary for the continued positive development of our society, expanding our ability to progress as global citizens. My goal as a professor of Spanish is to broaden our students' understanding of our world, encouraging them to develop second language skills that will eventually allow them to develop a deeper understanding of the peoples and cultures of our world.
Other Interests:
The most important part of my life is my family. I have a wonderful husband and four very active children and most of my free time is spent with them. We love to play and watch sports, camp, travel, and just spend time together. I am also a Volunteer Fire Fighter and Medical First Responder for a local fire company because I believe that community service is very important. I have traveled to many countries, including England, Scotland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Columbia, Honduras and Peru. In June 2003 I had the pleasure of accompanying 19 students from Clarion University to Ecuador and I hope to continue traveling with students in the future.

If you thought rent in the Twin Cities couldn't get any higher, brace yourself. There simply isn't enough housing to go around, so tenants shouldn't be surprised if their landlord hikes the monthly rate.
Landlords know the market puts them in the position to charge more. With demand up, and no renter's cap in sight, housing experts expect to see an over-supply of high-end housing while those in lower income brackets are getting priced out of the market.
"[My rent] was $680s. Now, it's $710," Linda Johnson told FOX 9 News. "They said 'due to increased expenses.'"
Johnson said the monthly checks she writes to stay in her Richfield home have shot up three times over the past four years. Although she's lived in her complex for two decades and her rate had increased by $5 a year before, she said she knows something else is going on now -- and housing experts say she's right.
"It's such a complex economy that it's just people trying to find housing that fits whatever income they have," Chip Halbach, executive director of the Minnesota Housing Partnership, told FOX 9.
The vacancy rate of apartments that cost less than $1,000 per month is diminishing quickly in the metro. Since last quarter, the vacancy rate has dropped to just 2 percent.
"A 2 percent vacancy rate is practically a 0 percent vacancy rate. It's so hard to find an apartment here in the Twin Cities with that trend around," Halbach said.
This quarter, the average cost of rent in the Twin Cities is $979 -- a rate that's up 9 percent from three years ago. As demand soars, so can the sum landlords can charge.
"There's no cap on rental increase in Minnesota," said Matt Eichenlaub, a housing attorney with Homeline, a non-profit tenant advocacy group.
With landlords in the driver's seat, negotiating rental price may be out of the question completely.
"Some are willing to give a discount if you do work around the place, but it is a very difficult situation to negotiate in for a tenant right now," Eichenlaub admitted.
Eichenlaub also said people on the low end are getting pushed out of the market altogether.
According to the Minnesota Housing Partnership, the average number of homeless families in Hennepin County has risen. The average number of families without a home in Hennepin County is up 17 percent over last year.
"The federal government recommends you spend about a third of your income on rent. There are a lot of people out there where $1,000 is a lot more than one third of their income," Eichenlaub said.
Both Eichenlaub and Halbach have a suggestion for anyone who thinks it's unfair that there is no rental cap in the state.
"Tell your lawmaker you think there should be a rent cap is in order," Eichenlaub recommended.
Neither of the housing experts who spoke with FOX 9 see this trend abating any time soon. For anyone looking for some free legal advice, both organizations are happy to help.

The death of a poisoned pet is being investigated by the Evansville Police Department.
The dog's owner, Richard Barton of Evansville, says he and his family are heartbroken. They called Ace their '100 pound lap dog', and they want someone to be held responsible.
Barton says the ordeal is an ongoing dispute between he and a friend of his. One that began about six months ago. EPD confirms that as well. They say no charges have been filed as of now.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
Phil's Hill is a small 20-25 ft crag hidden in the forest off the "Railroad Grade" road/trail across from Marquette Mountain Ski Area. The rock provides nice steep crimpy climbing with fun moves. NOTE - The given ratings are for "on sight" top-rope ascents. Most of the routes are a bit beta-intensive and feel easier once you are familiar with the routes and holds.
Getting There
The crag is off the right side of Hwy 553 as you head south from town. When the leaves are out, the crag is not visible until you are standing at it's base. From Hwy 553, Make a right turn onto the �railroad grade", a dirt trial/road that crosses the highway just before you drop down the hill to Marquette Mountain ski area. The condition of the "railroad grade" varies from year to year. Drive approx 0.3 mile or as far as you can and park along the side � do not block the road or mountain bike trails. The obscure access trail to the crag skirts to the left of a depression on the north side of the road.

UPDATED: Pitch inspection for Millwall v Burnley
11:24am Friday 18th January 2013 in Sport
MILLWALL have announced that a pitch inspection will take place at 9am tomorrow to determine whether their game against Burnley will go ahead.
The Lions believe that the pitch will be playable for tomorrow's 3pm kick-off, with the Den having undersoil heating, but have called in the referee for a morning inspection.
Millwall say they will also need to assess conditions around the ground because of snow and freezing temperatures.
"With a weekend weather warning out for snow in South London, everyone at The Den is working hard to beat the freeze and ensure that Saturday's npower Championship clash with Burnley goes ahead," Millwall said in a statement.
"The undersoil heating should ensure that the pitch is playable, but the referee will be at The Den at 9am on Saturday for an inspection.
"Naturally other factors are beyond our control, including the state of local roads and the surrounding areas, plus of course, public transport."

Following the sew-along organized on Thread & Needles, then I show you my version of the Infinity Dress … It has been over for 15 days at least, to super fast, in less than 2 hours! Good not to mention a hassle to cut the circle!
I have not the technique to highlight the good, I thought about putting a mini pink lace bustier underneath, so the plunging neckline is less, but I just gamberger and I can just go back the belt! Arff stupid I am! I have not tested either, all ways of knotting, would have viewed the videos …
Although initially it was intended to remain in the closet, I think now try to wear on sunny days;)

Je sais je sais… et modeste avec ça ! Ceci dit à ta place je la porterais un peu plus remontée sous la poitrine, façon empire, enfin si ça ne rend pas la jupe trop courte pour le coup.

STEVENS POINT (WAOW) -- Players from the Central Wisconsin Saints Hockey team got ready to hit the town, handing out free tickets to a game recently. The players hail from across the country, and the reason they're in Stevens Point, is their coach Justyn Dallmann.
"We were in a different league and it folded," Dallmann explained. "So I decided that we were going to try and find another league to get into because we had guys here waiting to play, but nobody to play against."
Dallmann spent a lot of time and effort getting the guys into the Great Lakes Hockey League, based out of Detroit. Within a month, the commission approved the Saints as an expansion team, giving the guys the go-ahead to get back on the ice.
"I had to put together a preliminary budget," Dallmann said. "What our expenses would be, what our incomes would be. To show that the team would be financially feasible."
On top of his full-time job, Dallmann spends an extra 4 to 8 hours a day working on hockey. He calls it a labor of love.
"I felt that they made a commitment to me and to the team and I felt that I owed it to them to give them the chance to continue," he said. "and not just say sorry, we're out of luck."
And his players are grateful.
"This is a pretty good league and I'm happy to be here," said Alex Lucas.
"It's great," said Gavin Palm. "It's a great team, a lot of talent, great coaching. It's a great community too."
Congratulations to Justyn. He and all our winners will be eligible to move on to the national competition.

"…I found it was worth every minute. Prozdor has definitely reshaped my thinking as each week I further develop my Jewish identity. Impressive teachers have guided me on this path. Prozdor has taught me to analyze texts from a Jewish perspective; locating key words that change the whole meaning of a passage, an invaluable skill which has helped me tremendously even in my secular studies. Prozdor has been a provocative place to doubt myself and allow others to challenge my opinions." Johanna '09
