We are beginning to see some light at the end of the tunnel with the drainage project on 11 fairway. Last week's weather only allowed us a few hours of work on Monday before the rain started. A little under 2 inches of rain forced us to stop work on project until the area was dry again. We were back at it again yesterday, and feared the chance of rain could prevent more progress this week. Luck has been on our side so far this week and we hope it doesn't run out. We were able to get in a full day yesterday and will be at the project all this week.
Work on this project is slower this week due to a small crew. About half of our staff is done working for the season. We are also still battling some persistent leaves around the course which takes at least 3 people to keep up with.
If we can avoid setbacks from the rain or equipment problems, it appears we will have the pipe, gravel, and sand in the ground by the end of the week. Sod work on the lines will be left to complete at that point.
This has been a long and detailed project to complete in-house, but the results will be well worth the effort. There will be a noticeable difference in the playability of the fairway after rain.
