Lagoons on # 8 of the Nicklaus Course

Small Lagoon on Nicklaus #7

Lagoon Repairs to Begin on Nicklaus  Course #7

     Many of you have seen the unsightly liners that are showing on the lagoons on the Nicklaus course.  In December, we hired two independent consulting firms and engineers to look at the problem.  Both were consistent in saying the problem is in the top three feet of the liner that has been damaged from the UV rays and holes.  The liner has deteriorated over time and has become semi-permeable causing erosion and water leakage within the top three feet of the liner.  We have hired one of these firms to begin the necessary repairs needed.

     We will be draining the small lagoon on #8 on the right side into the lagoon on the left during the next two weeks.  Work will begin on February 11^th, installing a new barrier and removing the damaged liner.  New sod will be put down to the water’s edge so that no liner will show.  Work should be completed on the small lagoon in one week and then they will begin work on the large lagoon on the left.  There will be minimal impact to golfers as most of the work will be taking place on the lagoon side. 

     Thank you for your patience during this process and we look forward to having both lagoons on #8 completed by March 8.
