Blue Bunkers, Crooked Pictures and LREP Update

Blue Bunkers!?!

  • Don't panic. The color is from the dye when we sprayed fungicide on the surrounds. It is water soluble and will go fade away early next spring.


Crooked Pictures
  • The golf course didn't tilt to the west. I was using the sideout view screen and obviously needed to look at my surroundings as well.

LREP Update
  • All bunkers aside from the 11th green are completed. The warm weather today allowed us to work on the fairway bunker on #13 and finish the base off to our satisfaction. Great job Eric and my staff. Should get the sand in next week. On that note we will need to top off several bunkers on the B9 next spring. Easier to add sand than remove it.
  • Pond fill on #10 is well underway after some river issues (ice, fluctuating water levels, idiots shutting off the pump at night. etc. etc.). Security from Garda is in place.
  • Retaining wall should be complete by next Friday. The 18th green will need some TLC from us next spring. Just add another job to the list for next spring. Sigh.
  • Irrigation is installed on the 10th tee and the driving range tee.
  • Root zone mix will be moved to the 3 new tees next Tuesday. The weather will dictate if it gets spread and leveled.
  • Very slim chance the pond on 18 will be filled. It will be snow fenced to protect the liner if need be.
  • Paths were paved on 13/14 and 14/15.
  • Short Game Practice Area is taking shape. Come down and take a look. End product will be first class.
All for now,
Wade
