Progress on the Back 9 ditch network has been tremendous
despite wet weather. Pictured below is an aerial photograph of the Back 9 and
the progress that has developed in just one week’s time. The yellow lines
demonstrate ditches that have been cleaned out and the red lines depict work
that still needs to be completed.

As illustrated, the ditches servicing 18 golf hole and the
Practice Facility have been cleaned. In addition, the “Main Ditch” or main artery
of the Ditch Network that all lateral or supplemental ditches are connected too
has been cleaned as well. These ditches still need to go through some final
shaping and contouring but it is safe to say that step one of removing
vegetation from those ditches is complete and looking good.
In the weeks to come, the team from MacCurrach Golf will be
transitioning into the red line ditches to commence the cleaning at those sites.
The red line ditches will service the far side of the course adjacent to the Ogeechee River and golf holes 10,11,15,16 and 17.

Construction activity will be limited to the ditch network and
the back of the practice facility causing minimal or no disruption to members
playing golf. All 18 holes and the practice facility are open for play.
