I wanted to take the time to share with you the damage we received from the storm a little more than a month ago. The storm yielded nearly over 2 inches in about an hour. That much rain in a short amount of time cause massive washouts throughout the course. The following pictures help show the extent of the damage. It took us nearly four days to clean everything up.
That weekend we also had The Gods Must be Crazy tournament. I guess that was fitting since it was a crazy weekend. Some of the damage was worsened by the surrounding firewise work in the native areas. More debris washed down onto the fairways than I have ever seen in the time I have been here.
I also want to thank the members for the positive comments they gave us for the quick cleanup we were able to do. The crew worked hard over the weekend to make the course playable for the tournament. Those guys appreciated all the positive feedback.
If you have any comments or questions please feel free to contact me.
