Some great things happened at the golf course last Saturday. In addition to adding gravel to the cart path between 5 green and 6 tee, tree branch clearing on No. 8, bunker restoration also began on hole 8. All of the old sand was taken out of the bunker and added to the right bunker on No. 7. The old fabric liner was also taken out.
