Day 33 Bunker Restoration

A heavy frost today greeted the staff as we attempted to get the fourth hole bunkers completed.  We were able to get the sand completed in the right rear bunker, drainage and sand was hauled into the right front bunker.  We have to finish the sand tomorrow in the front right bunker and complete the sod work around both bunkers.  Work continued on #17 with some additional trenching.  Both left bunkers were trenched.  We have to remove the spoils(soil) from the bunkers on Friday.  I hope to get the right bunker of  #17 and the bunker on #1 dug out tomorrow as well.  I'm not sure if we will do anything else to #17 and #1 until early next week due to time constraints.

Drainage leading out of the right front bunker.  We had to use the  large backhoe to trench  a line out to the sump hole that you see below.

I told Skip to dig a sump hole to drain the right front bunkers to and a  hole he dug.   Looks like a mine shaft.  The
bunkers will drain to the gravel sump which should be able to handle the amount of water coming into it.  The hole is covered with soil and sodded. 

Drain lines filled with pea gravel waiting for sand.
