Last week we received notice that we are now a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. We have been working very hard over the last couple of years to achieve this certification. This certification is very important to both us and Billy Casper Golf.
"The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf is an award winning education and certification program that helps golf courses protect our environment and preserve the natural heritage of the game of golf. By helping people enhance the valuable natural areas and wildlife habitats that golf courses provide, improve efficiency, and minimize potentially harmful impacts of golf course operations, the program serves as vital resource for golf courses."

As far as construction goes, the wetlands that are being piped and filled on the new nine holes are being done now. We have a meeting with the contractor set up on Thursday to go over details and get a start date. After this meeting, the contractor will be able to start mobilizing equipment and get started whenever they are ready. Hopefully the weather will not be what all of the long term forecasters are calling for this winter! It would be nice if Mother Nature would cooperate, but I am not holding my breath!
