Our drainage project is wrapping up this week. This will help prevent future turf failures in these areas and make these fairways more playable during wet periods.  This is just the start to a long range plan focusing on improving the golf course's ability to better withstand weather extremes. All told nearly 3/4 of a mile of underground pipe was installed including eleven catch basins. 

Adding internal drainage to the third fairway.

Here is an example of some of the "soil " we are trying to grow quality turf on.  

A closer look at what's underneath the turf and not very deep.

Good fertile topsoil is rare on our course. 

Laying out a plan to determine how pipe will run on the third hole where we lost so much turf last summer...

Followed by installation.
