BTW - we do need to paint the bridge out there, and there are a couple of tee signs down, clearly run over by mowers or similar. Also, we still need to do something about the basket on 13, it's a wreck.

I fully admit I should get a crew together to paint the bridge, I'm just doing daddy day care these days.

I can get the paint from the Parks Department but it may be a little slippery walking on it when it is wet. Are the damaged tee signs on the Wilmont or Powell or both? I haven't been out there in a couple of weeks so I haven't seen the broken tee signs. I did see there are a couple benches that needs repair from mower damage. That is pretty normal out there. I will be on vacation next week so I should have time to work on these items.

Adding some coarse sand to the paint will help a LOT. Zipper, if you can post your intentions in advance, it's possible that i can join you.

It is not "flooded" but you will need your water socks.

Not flooded is a technicality IMO. . I played the Willy yesterday and while the water wasn't anywhere near as bad as it can get, it's certainly wet. Btw, the parks guys have been hard on the baskets, 7 is
well overgrown, and they've taken out so many trees along the far side of the stream that the course actually feels different. We also lost another 100 year old tree on 7. We may be getting to a point where we will have to string some holes for TS to make them challenging.

yeah i played there yesterday. It was a lil bit wet. lost a dsc on hole 4, my favorite disc. so pissed. Worst part about it being wet is that you can see they tried to put drainage out there but it just doesn;t work very well. I also think they need to put some pine trees out there. Just way to open and there is no wind block.

Played Wilmont yesterday. Post on 16 at the top of the hill is gone. All that remains is the splintered base of a 4x4 in the ground. Very sad. I cried.
