#17 Approach Repairs

Checking the grades...

Lowering the approach by about 3 inches...

Finished product...

The winter damage on #17 was caused by the approach being slightly higher than the green creating a "bathtub" where water sat and then froze during the winter. To prevent this from happening again, we lowered the approach by about three inches and there is now positive surface drainage from the front of the green.

#17 had recovered enough to open it for play on Saturday May 1st. The front portion of the green and the approach are roped off...please treat them as ground under repair.

#11 and #12 are improving daily but still not quite ready for play. It won't be long though...
