| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses irrigation and bunker renovations at Deerpath in Illinois, stating that "after rainfall the bunkers would hold water and the sand texture was inconsistent throughout the golf course." States that "all of the 55 bunkers on the golf course were remodeled, and eight more fairway bunkers were added." Explains that "a water management system was built by Ryan Incorporated Central, beginning with the construction of a wetlands on the western edge of the golf course, which captures the surface run-off as it enters the club property." States that "as the work progressed, the golf course remained open to normal rounds of play, and the staff received few complaints from the golfing public." Concludes that "the two biggest things which [superintendent Craig Joscelyn] valued through the project were the dependability of his staff to manage things while he was absorbed in the details of the project, and also the importance of effective communication, especially during the planning stages as everybody was involved up front." |
