Years ago, long before I came here, there was a water
feature in front of the 12th green. Water was circulated from the 12th
pond to the smaller finger of the pond in front of the green and spilled over a
weir into the main body of water. It had been abandoned for quite some time; I
believe it was maintained only for the LPGA up until the tournament returned to
Seaview Country Club. Abandoned, it was a low area that the pond backed up into
and since it was not moving water, became a mosquito breeding area. Although we
did our best to keep it trimmed up, it slowly became an unsightly water hazard.
This spring we cleaned up the pond’s finger and rebuilt the
rotted weir, and are restoring the circulation system. We are very happy how it
is coming out, and are sure that it will improve the 12th hole, both
in appearance and playability.
