South Golf Course Improvement
What is going
to be done to
the course
and when...
The South Course Improvement project is planned to begin in early
April. The course will remain open while the existing grass is sprayed;
construction will begin on Thursday, May 1st.
Three major improvements will enhance the enjoyment of the South
Course. First, the entire course will be re-grassed using the best
varieties of turf. Second, design adjustments will be made to improve
playability. These include enlarging, moving or adding tees to provide
more options for course set up, softening approximately 10% of the
fairway surfaces, cart path repositioning on three holes, bunker
modifications and a new #17 green. Last, the landscape on the course
will be updated and feature a beautiful and continuous theme.
There are also plans to renovate the short game practice area. A large
U.S.G.A green featuring the same grass on the golf courses, three sand
bunkers and multiple chipping areas with new turf will provide more
practicing options.
The contractor should be finished in early August and the grass will
need three months to mature. The new and improved south course is
scheduled to be open for play November 1st.
