2013 Flood in Review

#8 tee and the south side of Butterfield Creek is where a bulk of the issues were.

Spent a few all nighters keeping the trash pumps moving water off the course.

Silt deposit left from the flooding of Butterfield Creek
The flood a few weeks ago left a lot of clean up work and delayed other work that was scheduled.  Fortunately, there are only a few scars that remain but all in all I am very happy this flood event took place during cool weather otherwise turf loss would have been enormous.  The Grounds Department is starting to catch up with some work that was delayed and the course is in excellent shape all things considered.
