The last half of this past week the course has been closed due to snow fall. Since Mother Nature is a golfer the course should be open this weekend or shortly thereafter. The forecast is looking good to get in a few more rounds.
Wednesday marked the beginning of blowing out the irrigation system and draining the irrigation pond. As of Monday, October 27th the new irrigation system will commence. Excavation on a new wet well to construct a new pump station will begin. It is critical that the pond be empty to set the intake pipe and well. Stay tuned this coming week for pictures and updates on the progress of this project. The decision to begin this part of the project is due to the low water table this time of year. The well will be 16 feet deep and we stand a greater chance of not having ground water problems this time of year. The pump you see here is a 6 inch pump operated by a diesel engine.
Looks pretty sweet! Can't wait for the new system. Any more new snow?
