January Update

We've started our drainage project this month again.  We are going to first tackle the constantly wet areas along the cart paths and back of greens on holes 16 and 17.  The soil around the cart path is a very wet muck and the grade does not allow the water to drain to the lower side of the cart path.  We will be trucking in soil from our large pile on the driving range and then regrading the slope to get water across the paths.


Given that these areas are not in the immediate line of play, we have elected to save the cost of sod and will heavily fertilize these areas and push the bermuda grass into them.  We will likely take plugs from the surrounding areas and fill in to encourage faster regrowth.  Until these areas are filled in, they will be roped off.  We appreciate you treating these as ground under repair and staying out of them.
