Course Update

We will have 16 holes open over the weekend. Holes 2 and 3 will remain closed.

There are some photos attached with this email showing the progress with the works on the 2nd and 3rd holes. Next week, we will be turfing most of the in-play area on the 2nd hole, and the contractors will be hydro-seeding the remaining area. Our Greenkeepers will then begin work on the bunkers on the 2 newly shaped bunkers on the 2nd hole. The contractors will also be installing the weir near the 3rd tee, finishing the ditch off on the 3rd hole and then hydro-seeding the banks of the ditch. They will also be hydro-seeding the dip in the 3rd fairway (near the 150-yard markers, see attached pic) that has now been filled in and levelled. They will then be installing the weirs near the 4th tee and 10th tee.

I will send out a further update during next week where I hope to give an idea of how long it will be before the 2nd and 3rd holes are back in-play.
