Dry golf courses remain so green

In an effort to keep the greens green through the drought, golf courses throughout the region guzzled far more water than they're entitled to. "It's not unusual necessarily to see that during a drought," said Mike Molligan, communications director for the Southwest Florida Water Management District, the agency that oversees water use.
