Bridge/Culvert Complete on Hole #6

The recently replaced bridge is now open on Hole #6 over the Lagunita Ditch.  The rotten wood bridge was replaced with a 48" culvert.  The pathway across is now gravel, to allow for any settling of the fill over the culvert pipe.  As with any bridge, please use caution when crossing!

New Black Paint for Ball Washers

You may notice we've repainted the ball washers on the course.  It is an attempt to clean up the look of our on-course accessories, and help them blend with the surroundings.  

We're in the market for new accessories, with the ones below being our first choice.  Look for an improvement in this area this spring!

Sunday Evening's Wind

Here is some of the aftermath of Sunday evening's windstorm.  Highest gusts were measured at 47 mph at the Stanford Weather Station (outside the Dept. of Environmental Health & Safety.)  Luckily no major trees or limbs fell, but lots of small debris is still being cleaned up.
