With the South Course being closed we have started our sand channel drainage project for the winter. As long as weather allows, we will focus our attention to areas on 3 South, 18 South, and 9 South. We have started with 3 South because these areas play a major role in deciding when to allow carts to travel the course after a rain event. Below are pictures demonstrating the process that is taking place.
- First, the laterals are laid out using flags.
- Here many aspects of the project can be seen. A lateral is being cut, sand is being installed and tamped, and sod is being put back in place,
- We have encountered a lot of rock while cutting the laterals.
- We have also encountered some large pieces of wood while cutting the trenches.
- Here is the finished product.
