Drainage installation behind 1 green

Work began yesterday on the drainage installation behind 1 green.  The pipe is now installed and gravel backfilled.  Some grading and sodding is now left to be completed.  This may be delayed due to weather over the next few days but it's great we had the opportunity to get the new pipe in the ground!

Work will continue on the brush cutting along the sixth hole today.  Brushing was done a couple of years ago but has grown in with many saplings since then.

Underbrush being removed on 6th hole today

A reminder that greens will be lightly topdressed this coming Tuesday morning June 28th (weather permitting).
