Drainage Challenges At # 11

Take a walk down your 11th fairway with us, after a 1.75" rain event. Your 11th golf hole is suffering from a major failure in the siphon drainage system as well as in its gravity drainage system. Your golf staff is hard at work diagnosing the problem and to date have come up with three different action plans that will be discussed in this Fridays Green Committee Meeting at 3:30. By the way, all members are invited to Green Committee meetings... Just contact CW or Dr. Thompson (Chairman) ahead of time so that we may fill you in on the meeting location and time which tends to change with everyone's busy schedule this time of year.

The 11th golf hole drainage challenge is complex. We have been struggling with this acute drainage failure for approximately three weeks. After investing and meticulously scrutinizing several corrective actions, we feel confident that your 11th golf hole will be up and running soon.
