We should be closer to a reopening of Black Mouse than we were at the time of the last update, 1.5 months ago. However, nothing has changed in terms of the remaining hurdles to be cleared. Hurdle 1 (the main one that is out of our control) is the completion and state approval of a septic/leach field project that is in the same area as the course.
I checked in with the superintendent a couple days ago, and here is his reply:
Jack,
Thanks for reaching out and glad your clean-up day was a success. We are still waiting for final approval from the state, should be soon. When we get approval, we can work on the timeline and when you could access the area.
I replied asking if we could use this lag time to begin evaluating an additional site he mentioned as a possibility for a new course in Boulder Creek. I’ve been cautious about taking this approach as I don’t want them thinking we’ll settle for this course instead of restoring Black Mouse, but I don’t think this is an issue now. When I hear back, I’ll be sure to share.
In the meantime, hang in there, and please continue to respect the school rules. Thanks for your support!
