Llanerch Golf Course and External Activities

We are moving forward with the restoration of the 8th pond or should I say, downward! Over the past 3 decades over 7 feet of debris has collected in the bottom of the pond. They are removing the material and placing it in the newly built "basins" on the hill side to filter out the water. The dredging will continue until we reach the  "original" base of the pond.  

Today, the contractor removed most of the water in #8 pond. The actual dredging will start early next week after some more prep work of the site. More updates to follow.

The 2017-2018 winter season has been marked by some minor and major projects on the course. We spent the first part of the off season removing debris, English ivy and dead branches along the fence lines across the property. The second part of the season saw the removals of most of the trees that bordered the creek that separates the 18th and 1st holes. We also removed three groups of trees on the left and right of the 2nd fairway. On 6 tee, we removed 7 trees and cleaned the area along the fence. In the third part of the off season, we will be starting the restoration of #8 pond and installation of additional irrigation on #2. This will conclude the tree removes for the off season with the exception of three trees on the back nine. In March/April, we will replant a combination of shrubs and trees on some of the fence lines and on the golf course. The tree removals will improve turf grass health, promote air movement and widen sight lines for the golfer.  I will have more inform...

We are starting the process of restoring #8 pond. Toth Brothers Inc is removing the sediment that has collected in the pond over the last 25 years. This will require us to close the tees for the next few weeks. The new tee location is in the beginning of the 8th fairway.
