Weather Shelter Update

Today was barely warm enough to continue with framing the new weather shelter on the 11th hole. This shelter is located about 40 steps in the north east direction from the 11th green. It will cover that void in the middle of the course for anyone caught in a storm. It is accessible from holes 11,12,15,16 & 17.
When the framing is complete, only the roof remains. The roof and wood materials mirror the pumphouse building. There are no inside walls on the building, however there are trees and willows to the west of the building to help protect against the prevailing winds. Inside the building will be a circular bench for golfers to sit as they wait out the storm. The wood will be stained the appropriate color and the lightning protection is scheduled to be installed in the springtime.
