Renovation Update June 2022

Sprigs have been laid in front of 6 back to 2 tee,18 green, and 10 tee out to the middle of the fairway.

Bunker shaping is complete on all 18 holes

Mulch is going down all throughout the Back nine.

Tee complexes are finished 1-10, 13-16

We have continued to line the bunkers with a liner called Sand Guard by Porous Pave. See their website for more info on the liner. It is a great material that let’s water through but keeps dirt contamination out. The crews have also installed sod around the edges and on the faces where it would be difficult to grow in sprigs.

The sand is the same as The Valley Club at Montecito uses, but we added 25% limestone to brighten it up a touch since the normal material is fairly brown. It stays on the slopes extremely well and doesn’t leave “Fried Egg” lies.

We look forward to welcoming you to the course soon. Please feel free to reach out by email at eullrich@valenciagolfclub.com at any time with any comments, questions, or concerns.
Sincerely,
Eric Ullrich
