Moving on to holes #14 and #15!

This week the crew crossed Stilesboro road and started on the original 18 holes.  We chose to start on holes #14 and #15 because it was the farthest from our maintenance shop, and we are trying to work inward towards the shop.  This way we can fix the damage incurred during the project, and hopefully the crew will not have to travel across those holes again as we progress towards completion.

Here is a picture of the bury pit the crew dug to place all the old sand.  After the project is finished they will push all dirt on top of the sand and create a small hill.  We will then seed the area with grass so we can grow it back in.  A "bury pit" like this is helpful to reduce the time it takes to travel to dump the excess material.  It is also very beneficial to limiting the traffic of the large equipment and preventing any further damage to the golf course.
