By mid-July the fields at the Aurora Sports Park are running hot from eight in the morning, and every lawn out toward Murphy Creek is living on whatever water and shade it can find. Senske Lawn Care Services - Aurora works that heat with the sun still low — mowing at a height that keeps the crown protected, trimming close along fences and hydrants, keeping clippings off the walk. High-plains turf does not forgive a scalping in August, so the blades stay sharp and the deck stays up. What shows at the end of the day is simple: even colour, straight passes, a hard clean line where the grass stops. What it buys is a lawn that makes it to September.
