Flooding forces cancellation of golf breakfast

Flooding on the 1st fairway after 5.25" of rain lead to the cancellation of the golf breakfast. After the fairway renovation project the elevated fairways and increased storage in the wetlands will make it possible to play after extreme rain events such as this, most likely with carts on the fairway. 
The fairway drained over the course of the morning but flooded again when the gate closed at high tide. After the project is complete the tide gate will remain open longer allowing the watershed to drain faster.
