Adding sand to bunkers, fixing wells and Men's Invitational.

As part of the effort to keep bunkers playing consistently, we topped some of them off with sand. Between the wind blowing it out, the rain washing it away and rakes and shots taking it out, bunkers lose sand all year long. Usually, it's the same bunkers every year that need sand added, but we always check and add where necessary. This is a quick and easy way to improve consistency and appearance. Below is a picture of about how much sand we add to bunkers in need.

We are in the process of fixing the wells we have at the driving range. These wells need attention from time to time in order to keep them working. As you know, we cleared out the pond left of number 9 in order to have some extra irrigation water in case of a drought. The wells at the range actually feed that pond and would keep it full of water in case we ever had to transfer that water to the irrigation pond. In short, it's important that these wells work. We brought a well company in to work on them and they are in process. Once they are repaired we'll be well prepared for the upcoming heat of the summer.

Well pipe at range.

Finally, I hope everyone enjoyed the men's invitational this weekend. We did our best to get the course in great shape and it was playing firm and fast until the rain came Thursday night. Hopefully this didn't take away from the weekend! Congratulations to everyone who won and I hope that you all had fun.

Oh, and I hope you enjoyed the Cav's win. This is how we should start every summer.
