Wissahickon Restoration Update 10/12/13


Since the last update we have completed all the major shaping on the course and continue to work on fine details along with our continued sod work, as we button up areas on the course.  The sod work has included, flopping sod in the fairways as the final lines of the fairways have been drawn out by Keith.  Another big portion of the sod work includes sodding the large bluff to the right of 15 with native fescue.  This will provide a dramatic view next summer when the fescue seed heads turn bright gold.  Please enjoy our most recent photos and our last time lapse video from 14 green.
