As you can see from the photo below... #6 green complex is getting ready to be moved. The sod from the green will be harvested this Wednesday and stored on plastic until the new green is built and ready to be sodded. Basically the entire greens complex will be moved almost 200 yards to the south and rebuilt in it's new home.

In the next picture you can see we harvested the sod from the 6th fairway and used on the new fairway and approach on #2. Everything is happening fast!

Week of 9/30....holes 2,5,6 are closed!

Starting next week...holes 2,5,6 will be closed. After finishing hole #4 please drive or walk along the river behind 5 tee and 6 green to the hitting mats on river #7. Please just follow the yellow cation tape. I will have hitting mats set up so members can play the old number 7 ( current practice hole) while the bunkers on regular #7 are being worked on. This will open 15 holes for the week. The plan is to finish construction and sod holes 2,5, & 7 by the end of the week.

Please be careful in all work zones.....lots of equipment and workers on the holes under construction. Please check with the golf shop if you have any questions. Thanks and have a wonderful week!

As always please call me or email me with any questions at 303-726-0811 or hlynch@columbinecc.com.

Today we were able to open 17 holes for play. It was a busy week for the project but I'm starting to see the sod on holes 3 and 4 beginning to take root while construction is still heavy on holes 2,5,6, & 7. Only hole #2 will be closed this weekend!

Also... this week we took down the big cottonwood south of the fairway bunker on hole #18. As you can see in the picture it was a big one! I'm luckily to have such a talented staff to be able to take down such a large tree safely! We now have taken down a total of 91 trees as part of the GCMP. I know 91 sounds like a lot but most of the trees that have been taken down are at the end of their life cycle or interfering with the GCMP. Please remember proper tree maintenance will help with turf quality.

👷🚧

The time is here to start shutting down golf holes so we can get as much of the GCMP completed before winter freezes us out!

Starting next week...holes 2,3,4,5,6 will be closed for play. The best option for flow will be to play hole #1 and then travel on Niblick Lane to hole #7. For every ones safety please stay completely away from holes 2,3,4,5,6. Please travel east on Niblick Lane to the end of the cul-de-sac and re-enter the golf course by using the cart path at #7 tee.

The golf shop will have signs to help remind everyone posted on #1 tee & green. Please follow posted directions,  I apologize for the inconvenience but assure everyone the wait will be worth it! It is essential to the projects timeline and every ones safety to follow all directions.

As always please call or email me if you have any questions. My email address is hlynch@columbinecc.com or my cell phone is 303-726-0811.

CCC members.....look at your new bunkers!!!!!


😎      
   
  WOW!!!

Recently I took a couple of pictures of the sub-surface irrigation we are installing around all the new bunkers. The new sub-surface irrigation will help keep the bunker edges nice and lush without adding any water to the sand. Another advantage to the sub-surface irrigation is I can run it during the hottest part of the day and the golfers will never know. This is an exciting addition to the bunker complexes thus raising the bar when it comes to playability!

GUR!

The bunkers on Holes 3 & 4 have been marked GUR (ground under repair). The project has begun!
Please take relief from designated areas.

09/05/2019

The chipping green and area is closed for bunker renovation and to help the putting surface heal from all the practice shots over the summer. We will be using the chipping area as new #10 when we close hole 10 for renovation on September 23rd.  Don't laugh! It will be a tough 80 yard hole!
