Putting The Course Back Together Again

It will take some time to get the course back into shape.  There is still water across the 16th fairway this morning, and some cart paths will need to be rebuild.  The crew has done an amazing job this morning, in very unfavorable weather, to get the course back in shape.  Cleaning debris, fixing bunkers and fixing cart paths are the priorities today.  We are foregoing some mowing(still too wet also) and working to get the course in playable condition.  This means some fairways will be very long through the weekend.

After a great effort from the crew, the picture above shows a very different look today when compared to this picture yesterday.

Torres and Juan working to put the cart path back on the cart path.  This is one area where the path will need to be rebuilt.  The water washed away the subgrade and some soil.  For now we are working to get the gravel off of the grass and make the cart path passable.

The crew is doing a great job of getting the bunkers back in shape-for the second time this week.  On Monday we started our normal spring maintenance on the bunkers which involves moving sand to provide the proper depths.  Unfortunately, now they have been forced to do it all over again.

The course will be open for play and the practice areas will be reopen on Saturday, April 20th.  There will be no carts on Saturday.  We will reevaluate the carts for Sunday.
