2nd Hole pruning. Round 2!

Tree Pruning

Between all the stone dust removal we are doing we managed to squeeze in a bit of tree pruning by the forward tees on 2. More to come!

More Stone Dust Removal

Stone dust removal is continuing today on the cart path leading up to the 14th tee and the cart path leading up the hill towards the 18th green. Another 3,500 square feet of sod has been ordered for the areas that have been stripped of stone dust and will be delivered next Thursday morning. Here are a few pictures and a quick video of the work being done today.

Stone Dust, Sod, and Red Bull

This past week has been an exceptionally busy one for the Turf Care Center staff. Outside of our normal course maintenance we have managed to make significant headway on removing the stone dust at the ends of the cart paths and replacing it with sod. The sod will need some time to establish and take root so please keep off all newly sodded areas until further notice. Thus far, Holes 1-5 and half of 6 have been completed.  Work has already begun on removing the remaining areas of stone dust on the 6th hole, 13th hole, and 18th hole. We plan to have these areas prepped and ready for sod by the middle of next week.  Please continue to be patient with us as we complete this process. We apologize for any disruption in play that it may cause. I think we can all agree that the end result is a huge improvement.

6th Green

Pictured below, a large amount of stone dust has been removed from the area surrounding the cart path near the 6th green. Next week it will be regraded with loam and then sodded. The smaller areas of bare ground to the left of the cart path and to the right of the ropes will be loamed and seeded.

Stone Dust Removal

Work has begun on removing ALL stone dust around the cart paths. Once the stone dust is removed the areas will be re-graded with loam and then sodded. Holes 1-5 should be completed by the end of next week.
