Driving Range Tee Renovation

At its July meeting, the LPN Board of Managers approved a renovation project for the LPN driving range to begin this fall. The current tee box has a deteriorating railroad tie retaining wall that needs replacement. It is also undersized, requiring the golf maintenance staff to position bag stands in front of the tee to encourage turf recovery after periods of heavy usage.

The project will include removing the deteriorating railroad tie wall, extending the tee box to the west, and installing a new block retaining wall.

At the back of the tee box, a new synthetic grass tee line will be installed. This will help protect the natural turf and provide a better teeing option when the natural turf area is closed.

Edging will also be installed around the tee line for a polished appearance and easier mowing. In addition, new bag stands will be purchased.
