Jeff:
The work should be wrapped up by the middle of March ... all of the greens are finished and seeded, and they just have a handful of fairways left to grass. I have posted a handful of pictures of it on Instagram @doakgolf , but of course I am outspoken about not letting too many photos out there before opening day, to leave people some potential upside in their reactions to the work.
The members have slowly but surely gone out to see what's been done, and the reaction is very positive. I had a few of the old guard come up to me in January when I was there for an extended stay, and say they had voted against the renovation, but they just hadn't imagined how different the course would look when it was done.
The grand opening is in July. I'm told they have contracted with one of their members to write a piece of music for the opening ... he's been hitting range balls about every day since the course was closed. His name is John Williams.
