Project Update

Who would have thought that by Mid April we would already have over 5000 rounds and hit the 90 degree mark.  Ironic that they both happened on April 15th this year.  The 16th hole is progressing nicely as can be seen in the picture to the right where the cover was temporarily removed today for inspection. As you can see germination is moving along at this point and next week we plan on removing the cover and mowing the fairway portion of the turf.

We also have begun repairing the eyesore of a cart traffic area at the 7th hole near the green.  We plan on creating a defined path while also reestablishing the turf line to solve both a playability and aesthetics problem.  Our long term solution to a permanent path on #7 is to bring it down the right side of the fairway ultimately leading to the 8th tee.  We will not be opening up the 7th fairway from the 150 yard marker to the green as the area is too narrow to handle the amount of traffic that we produce on a daily basis.
