Dogwood Begins...


Golf Course Update:

 

 

Good morning Callawassie Island.  We are excited as our countdown to the Dogwood renovation has entered the final days.  Monday, Dogwood will be officially closed to begin the renovation work.  TDI has already begun staging equipment in our temporary staging yard along Dogwood 2 off Callawassie drive.  Drainage and other materials have been delivered to the shop.  The Agronomy Team is making final preparations for next week and our first application of bermudagrass eradication has been made.  The golf course will remain open for play through the weekend, but you will notice the grass beginning to turn brown following this application.  Both TDI and the Callawassie Agronomy Team have our gameplans ready to go for Monday as we get started.  First, the Agronomy Team will be busy installing tree protection around all tree locations on Dogwood.  We will also be installing silt fencing around bodies of water and along the marsh line of Dogwood 6-9.  Utility locates will be completed, along with all golf course accessories removal.  For the first week, TDI will concentrate their efforts on Dogwood 1 and 3 working on Tee construction on Dogwood 1 and drainage on Dogwood 3.  The crews will move forward from these holes working together to accomplish the plans for each hole.  Please remember to remain off Dogwood once we begin the renovation work.  We hope you all enjoyed the Town Hall we recently completed.  For those unable to attend the drawings for Dogwood can be found on the Callawassie website.  Remember to check in on the blog as updates and photos from work on Dogwood will be posted there.  www.Cicturfagronomy.blogspot.com

 

We are all very excited to get started.  Please reach out if you have any questions about the upcoming work.

 

Thank you for your support
