Palm Beach County operates multiple golf courses, each of which has unique conditions, and all of which compete with other nearby golf facilities. By auditing play at each course, BrightView was able to recognize a pattern.

BrightView employees led teams of volunteers from CBRE to install flower pots, enhance the landscape, and bring in topsoil for the vegetable garden at the Park South Family YMCA. Members of the YMCA will now be able to grow produce for their community and also use the garden as an educational tool.

Winter is the best time to prune your trees and will give them a great start for the new year. Winter pruning is less stressful on the trees, yields a better result, and more.

Roseville hired BrightView and Sports Restaurants, Inc., to help run its golf course maintenance and club operations (dining/pro shop), respectively. Thanks to a master communications plan proposed by BrightView at the outset, the partnership between all three entities has been a success.

Fifty military children received new bicycles and helmets that were donated to the Hunt Heroes Foundation from BrightView, a partner of Hunt Military Communities on many of its properties.

Within a few months, the Longshore Golf Club was showing tremendous improvement. Trust was regained among town officials, a rational maintenance budget was put in place, and operations were streamlined and optimized.

With graduation just three weeks away, Howard University was anxious for a restored landscape that honors the university's heritage. BrightView executed a contract the same day and began work immediately.

The grounds and revenues at the Lake Worth, Fla., 18-hole municipal golf course had been declining for 10 years when the city decided to bring BrightView on board to turn around course conditions and, at the same time, rein in costs.

Bare spots marred the fairways, algae floated atop lake waters, and inconsistent mowing ruined course aesthetics. Worse, the club had just invested heavily in a new irrigation system, but nothing seemed to be helping get the turf — and the course — back in shape.
