A Race with Mother Nature
VM Golf Services is closing fast on the bunker project. They have 1.5 bunkers left to get sand into before the rain rolls in. We are crossing our fingers, hoping everything will fall into place and they complete this process before it rains. If they are unable to finish #11 and #10 before the rain, we may be set back by a couple of days. Once these bunkers are filled, VM will use a vibratory plate compactor to firm up the sand. I will then probe these bunkers to make sure all bunkers contain 4 inches of sand throughout. If more sand is need to reach the 4 inches, VM will add the required sand and compact it to spec. We are hoping to have the blue nine available for Saturday morning play.
