Last week we dusted off the old canoe and installed two subsurface bubblers in # 8 pond. The are designed to increase the amount of oxygen in the water column. It directly reduces algae build up and helps the fish breath better. Our plan is to install 2 more in #18 pond next year. As for the soil piles behind the pond, they need a few more months to dry out before we can reshape the area.
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.
