Completion of Sodding of Holes No. 6 and 7 This Week



With the weather finally starting to cooperate over the last week, golf course shaper Donnie Robb and his crew have managed to complete the bunkers and sodding in around No. 6 green yesterday!  By the end of the day today, the tees on No. 7 will also be fully sodded, which wasn't scheduled until next week, getting us back on schedule with the course improvements this spring.  It goes to show how close things were to being completed, we just needed the window without rain to get it done.














Now we can focus on completion of the new tees on No. 6, hydro-seeding the hillsides, relocating the course washroom and starting the new fairway bunker on No. 7.

**With the sod just freshly laid, No. 6 green and new tees on No. 7 will remain closed until the grass has time to take root.  After putting out on No. 5, please proceed to tee blocks setup on the start of the 7th fairway.


**YOU ARE STILL REQUIRED TO ENTER YOUR SCORES FOR HANDICAP PURPOSES:
Please post Par plus any handicap strokes that you are entitled to receive on hole No. 6  & No. 7.
