Clay Courts and Pork Sandwich

Finally finished resurfacing all 19 clay courts today - about 40 tons worth. The next step is to firm-up the courts in preparation for putting down new lines.

Pallets

Charlie leveling the court in preparation for new top dressing (John, I know Chas is not in the picture, but he did the work)

Nate pruning Japanese Cherries

To eliminate layering between underlying clay and topdressing, Nate is using a nail drag he made that is similar to ones used on major league baseball infields.

Lots of Pictures

The clay courts are still too soft to work on so the crew has been working on grounds clean-up and improvements. Andrew and Nate installing new grass court bench (Nate made the benches)
