Despite yesterday's weather, between the BCC staff and the crew from McDonald and Sons, we were able to lay between 9,000 to 10,000 square feet of sod. The BCC staff laid the fairway extension, which is on the left side of the picture below. McDonald's crew laid all of the sod for the green expansions. Getting the greens sod laid is an intricate and time consuming process to get the seams to match and be as tight as possible. These guys are truly professionals and did a great job. With a little topdressing, fertilizing, and a couple of passes with the roller, these areas should quickly fill in (as long as the weather cooperates).
I can not express enough, how impressed I am with the amount of work that has been accomplished in 7 days. With the vision of architect Andrew Green, on site leadership of job foreman Jason Richter, and tremendous work of the six crew members (that is not a misprint, there are only 6 guys and Jason) I could not be more happy with the progress that has been made to this point.
I keep adding pictures of #12 because that hole lends itself to the unique opportunity of having pictures taken from a great perspective. I promise work is happening to the other holes. We have more pictures that will be posted soon.
