Golf course chemicals are now known to have a direct impact on Alzheimer’s.
Nevertheless, when I requested a schedule of chemical sprays and a list of ingredients used on the Rio Verde golf course we live on, I was refused. The Rio Verde golf manager said, “Why do you want this information?” I said I was “afraid.” His reply: “Then maybe you need to consider moving.”
It seems a more helpful response might have been, “I will immediately email you that list of ingredients going into your home, yard, pool and Yorkie water bowls.”

Golf course chemicals are now known to have a direct impact on Alzheimer’s.
Nevertheless, when I requested a schedule of chemical sprays and a list of ingredients used on the Rio Verde golf course we live on, I was refused. The Rio Verde golf manager said, “Why do you want this information?” I said I was “afraid.” His reply: “Then maybe you need to consider moving.”
It seems a more helpful response might have been, “I will immediately email you that list of ingredients going into your home, yard, pool and Yorkie water bowls.”
I write this simply to educate Fountain Hills and Rio Verde readers to rethink a golf course that refuses such simple information regarding their health.
