#1 Washout Repair

#9 Approach

#1 Drainage Project

We are officially in the heart of the "Raining Season".  1.5" last night preceded by 1.25" Sunday night.  That brings the total for the month of June to 11.25". The rain last night came down all at once and left us with quite a mess.  I have included a few pictures showing washed-out bunkers and standing water throughout the golf course. 



We have put our normal Tuesday maintenance on hold to focus on a better presentation for the remainder of the week.  One project left unchanged on the schedule is an additional drainage line being installed on the right green slope of #1.  I am confident that this project will lead to improved playability and healthier turf in this high traffic area.  The previous drainage projects on holes #13, #14 and #15 have eliminated the need for mechanical pumps to remove standing water after a rain event.  We will continue to pinpoint these historically wet areas and correct them throughout the summer.
