The contractor recently finished the two tees on Grove #3 and has been working on the rock wall at Lakes #2 green. The tees were sodded last week and bluegrass sod is coming next week to finish the surrounds. The recent wet weather hasn't been ideal for working on Lakes #2, but the contractor anticipates being finished out there this week. Similar to the wall on Lakes #6, the soil had settled and was eroding between the rocks, causing the rocks to be unstable and sink holes to form. The contractor excavated the loose soil behind the wall, then installed filter fabric and washed gravel to stabilize the section. The final step was to build up the settled area between the green and the wall with topsoil to create a runoff area for balls to stop on. Once the soil dries out enough the maintenance staff will re-establish the collar around the green and the area will be sodded with bluegrass and maintained at rough height similar to Lakes #6.
