The contractor finished up a few odds and ends last week and there are a couple areas needing sod that the maintenance staff will complete as the weather allows. Overall, the project was a tremendous success and was able to address many more areas throughout the courses than originally planned. Thank you for your patience and understanding during the project. The finished product is receiving rave reviews and everyone is understandably excited to try out the new tees next season.
Here's a brief summary of the project:
- Renovated and enlarged 12 tees on 5 holes
- Increased the usable teeing surface by 11,000 square feet (.25 acres)
- Repaired 2 rock walls with a combined length of 300 feet
- Used 300 tons of sand mix for the tees
- Used 45 tons of gravel and 23 tons of screened topsoil for the rock walls
- Installed 36,000 square feet of bentgrass sod and 38,500 square feet of bluegrass sod

to play from and balls won't be lost in the sinkholes between the rocks |
