The new tee boxes on 2,4,15 and 18 are growing in nicely and are in use for regular play.

The bunker work is ongoing -some are still ground under repair such as the one that stretches between the fourth and sixth greens.

Michael:

I am not sure what you mean, but there is no bunker linking 4 and 6 green (there is a new tee box shared by 4 and 8 though).  6 green is all by itself and, while it was a difficult hole before, now it is a beast.  Previously, if you hit a perfect 3wd/driver, you would have about 150-170 or so into the green over the creek.  I got to play it a few weeks ago, hit a mediocre drive and 2nd shot was to the edge of the fairway.  I had over 200 in to the green from there.  Nice par 4.

Also, no new tee boxes on 2 & 18 and 15 is a couple of years old now.

I like a lot of the changes, but the greens on 8 and 16 are pretty severe.  With all the trees gone, 16 has a completely different look.

Most of the projects are finished.  Still alot of cleanup from all of the work.  They are still rebuilding a few of the original bunkers that were not done last year.  One major project that is still going is the pad for the merchanidse tent between 13 and 14 as well as the access road to it.  Like Steve said there are no new tess on 2 and 18 and the tee on 15 was built in 2003 and the one on 4 was finished last spring.  4 and 6 greens are about 1000 yards away from each other so im not sure which one you are talking about there.
