Renovations nearly complete

The bulk of the renovations are now complete with the front nine fairways, tees, green surrounds, aprons and this week the greens all renovated. These areas have all been cored, scarified, fertilised and top dressed with the tees, fairways and aprons also being seeded with rye grass. With the warm weather at the moment these areas should only take a few weeks to recover so that the course is in top shape for the Spring Classic and the Club Championships. The boys have put in quite a few extra hours in the past couple of weeks to get the job done. Below I have included a few photos so you can see what has been going on. You can click on the images to get a larger view.
