Here we go again.... |
Just in case you have not had enough of winter, it's snowing again. Oh joy! (I hope you can feel the sarcasm) Now that we have finally return to getting work completed on course, Mother Nature shows up to wreck our plans. Although we had nearly a half of an inch of rain overnight, hopefully we stay on the lower end of the snow and ice accumulation range and get back to work sooner rather than later.
Last week we were able to get a full week of work and make great progress. I'm sorry I do not have any pictures, but check back later in the week. All the work on numbers 1 and 10 was completed. Some sod was laid on the right side of 1 and around the bunkers on 10. Once we get back and are able to get sod, the rest will be sodded. The work on 7 has been completed as well. The bunkers were built, drained, sanded and have some sod around them. All the bunkers that were completed had a ring of 3-4 pieces of sod to protect the sand from getting mud and other debris in them. It may look a bit odd but there is a rhyme and reason for doing it that way.
The bulk of the visual work was done on 6. The entire green surround was stripped, old bunkers removed, new bunkers and features added, and bunker drainage outfalls installed to get the rain and snow water out. Once we can get back to work Andrew will return and we will be able to move forward with the final tweaks. At that point we will move on to 8. They also started constructing the new forward red tee on number 6. One of the biggest complaints was the big slice needed off the red tee to reach the fairway. The new tee is more centrally located setting up the player much better.
