Yesterday, we were out on the course to check on the snow and it was great to see the City of Philadelphia Skyline!. The snow is melting quickly but it will be very wet afterwards. We are working on some drain work on 11 and 1 today. In other developments, we will be starting the restoration of 18 pond late this week or beginning next week, dependent on weather. We will be sending updates as we progress.
Starting yesterday, the construction crew began sodding the 18th green complex. They have installed bentgrass for the fairway extensions, low cut bluegrass for the intermediate cut and turf type tall fescue for the rough. They also installed some fine fescue on the bunker edges. We plan to finish sodding by tonight but might need to purchase a small quantity more next week to fix some construction wounds.
