1. The first week seems so exciting, all the bunkers are opened up and molded into rough shapes of what's to come.  The second week looks as if progress has halted with no new bunkers of any significance,  being roughed in.   In the second week all the boring and tedious task of drainage, finish grading,  repairing and installing irrigation takes place.  Week three the project cycles back to the first week, opening new ground on holes #2 and #1, along with sodding of all bunkers on holes #3!!!!

Notice the green feels higher with the mound to the right removed.

Sod is removed from area in lower right corner of pict. where bunker is to be rebuilt.  Second pile of soil is where bunker is being removed.

The remainder of this week will be spent prepping bunkers on #3 and 4 for sod, and roughing in the bunkers on hole #2.   Next week TDI plans to sod bunkers on hole #3 and 4, rough grade bunkers on hole #2 and begin working on bunkers on hole #1.  The week of Sept. 3rd TDI plans to bring in a special crew to begin work on modifications to green #3,9,11 and 12.   Each green will take a few days to complete, with the exception of #12 which will take a week or more to complete.
