I am very pleased to announce that the renovation of the member and championship tee on #7 is complete. This project addressed a big need for additional teeing space for two tees that received a lot of wear during the season. By utilizing some unused area around the tees we have gone from 800 square feet of teeing area to 3,200 square feet.
The work was completed by a company we use for our fairway aerification, Growing Solutions. This company also did the renovation of the championship tee on #17 and as always they did a great job.
Below are pictures from throughout the project from start to finish.
