In an effort to save money and help improve the environment, Denver's golf courses have ordered new green tending equipment to maintain its greens and be cost effective. Denver Parks has invested their money in Jacobsen products and plan to save over $250k over the next 5 years on fuel and repair costs while also doing good on nature.

In an effort to catch up on deferred capital equipment purchases, Denver Parks and Recreation’s Golf Division recently made a significant investment in a fleet of Jacobsen,  turf maintenance equipment. The fleet, which includes mowers, fairway mowers, rough mowers, trim mowers and utility vehicles, will be used on Denver’s seven municipal golf courses and throughout several of the departments parks and green spaces.
