More rain. It feels like I have been writing that same description of the weather in most of the updates this summer! Yesterday, Llanerch received another 2 inches of rain. The bunkers are going to take a couple days to be fixed from all the water damage. I glad to report that after close to ten years from when they were originally rebuilt, they still completely drain out! As some of you might not know, the bunkers also have a protective fabric that was installed all along the surfaces of the bunkers when they were rebuilt. The fabric reduces how much sand is washed and keep the soil base from mixing with the white sand. On a day like this, it continues to remind me how well these bunkers were constructed by our contractors. On another note, carts are allowed started at 8:00am today.
Today marks the beginning of mobilization of equipment on # 8 for the upcoming restoration. Our golf course contractor is Total Turf and with golf course architect Brian Schneider from Renaissance Golf, they will be teaming up to open a new chapter in Llanerch's storied history.
