Apr 2010 - Oct 2010
Ranked as one of Americas top 100 golf courses, home to 3 championship courses. Whilst I was at Saucon Valley the course experienced severe flood damage which resulted in my involvement in bunker reconstruction. I also got the opportunity to be involved with an 18 hole USGA greens construction and prepared the course for several amateur events. Whilst at this course I was trained as a Spray Technician using a pedestrian spraying device and a Toro ride-on. Whilst working here there was a 3 month drought so water management was our highest priority
