Update on #3




The pea gravel base has been added to the green, which will help with any draining from the green itself. Next will come the sand/peat mix, but with the rain last night and more moving in, it has slowed down this process. The mix is ready but with the equipment being used to haul the mix there could cause damage and ruts to the rest of the course and the green bank. Also, the left bunkers have been shaped in. This is a totally different look that I think everyone will like. As they are adding the mix to the green, they will also be putting in the drainage from the right bunker, connecting it to a catch basin on the right side of the green, then rapping it around the front of the green, attaching the green drain and the left bunkers, then flowing out into the rocks. Depending on Mother Nature the rest of the week, the final stage will be to seed the green and sod the surrounds. Hope everyone has enjoyed watching this project take shape.
