The work we did this week has really taken shape. The cart path east of #7 green was removed. We added over 60 yards of soil to the area and mounded it slightly to blend into the existing area. It was seeded today; we should see some germination yet this fall.
All of the topsoil used in this project came from the dump. Over the last three years, we have been piling up old sod and debris from previous projects. Over this period, the debris has decomposed into some nice topsoil. What we once considered discards, we were able to utilize and save a significant amount of money.

We also rerouted the cart path on #6 tee this week. The cart path previously went right through the middle of a low area. During periods of heavy rain, the area was too saturated for cart traffic. We rerouted the path to some drier ground and improved the drainage and topography in front of the tee.
