------------------------------------
All the greens were re-built to USGA specifications and seeded with A1/A4 Bentgrass.

The fairways were stripped, contour leveled and seeded with Perennial Ryegrass.

Tee boxes were seeded withL-93/Princeville Bentgrass. The course will now have 5 sets of tees on each hole.

Over 18 football fields of Tall Fescue/Kentucky Bluegrass sod were used for the green,
tee, and fairway bunker surround areas.

Sixty-five new bunkers where constructed with state-of-the-art drainage.

A new concrete golf car path was re-routed from the old asphalt routing.

The irrigation system was upgraded with the addition of 538 irrigation heads, more than doubling the old number.

Tree-lines were selectively thinned to counteract encroachment over time.

Plantings were made to improve visual quality and provide environmental enhancement.
