Rain and more Rain

The course received about 4.25" rain this past Thursday.  I am attaching several pictures to show the extensive flooding.  Thankfully the water is slowly receding and as of Sunday afternoon the front 9 fairways are free of standing water.
Reggie spent some time on the Bobcat during the course closure to surface grade some areas and assist the drainage process.  Some of our soil work on the back 9 washed out as well, so we will re-grade those areas next week and lay some sod along the path to help stabilize the soil directly along the cart paths.

Unfortunately at this time of year there is no water uptake by the turf, so we just can not handle substantial rainfalls of that magnitude.
