Starting in 2022 the St. Charles Golf & Country Club in Winnipeg, Manitoba moved forward with an ambitious renovation project for the 27 hole facility which was completed in 2026. The third nine holes, known as the Woods Nine originally designed by notable Canadian architect Norman Woods was built in 1954.

As part of the 27 hole renovation project, the massive redesign of the Woods Nine was recently completed by Canadian Architect Riley Johns & Keith Rhebb of Rhebb Johns Golf Course Design.

The redesign features dramatic bunkering and wide fairways with strategic playability and sight lines reminicent of Norman Woods designs back in the day, as well as a large relocated irrigation storage pond.

The new irrigation system design for the Woods Nine utilizes individual sprinklers to separately water the short cut fairways and roughs as well as the green surfaces and surrounds.

The Woods Nine opened for limited member play recently and as you can see form the photos, it looks fantastic - thanks to course superintendent Braydon and his crew and the grow-in crew from Rhebb Johns Golf Design and irrigation contractor Cameron Pittner who also did a great job.

Last week members of the renovation team and representatives from the City of Red Deer and River Bend golf course met on site for the one year warrantee inspection.

The golf course is recovering nicely and looks fantastic thanks to the hard work from superintendent Jason and his maintenance staff.

Here’s what the course looked like a year ago and now. Special thanks to CTC Golf Construction, Alpine Irrigation and golf course architect Wade Horrocks for another successful project. Also thanks to the City of Red Deer and River Bend GC team who were great to work with.

In 2017 the Christina Lake Golf Club in Southern BC moved forward with plans to install a new irrigation system on the front nine of the beautiful 18 hole facility. That plan also included the installation of a new irrigation pumping system and raw water transfer pump system from the adjacent river. The project was a great success thanks to Olson Beatty Golf (irrigation contractor) and Iconix Waterworks (the main supplier).

This week we are gearing up to complete the second phase of the project, the new irrigation system installation for the back nine holes - utilizing the same irrigation contractor and supplier.

Pacific Irrigation Consultants is proud to once again be joining the team. Construction work will start next week with the new HDPE main line pipe installation this fall and the irrigation on fairways, tees and greens in the spring of 2027. We will post some photos of the progress in the coming weeks.

With temperatures expected in the 36C (97F) range on Saturday, the new irrigation system at the Picture Butte Golf Club in Southern Alberta is up for the task as shown here.

Just over 1,000 sprinkler heads for 18 holes, the new irrigation system installation project is close to 80% complete, which is great news.

The historic Castlegar Golf Club, located in Southern B.C. has retained Pacific Irrigation Consultants to prepare an Irrigation System Master Plan Design for the property.

The championship course is nestled in the Selkirk Mountains overlooking the mighty Columbia River. Treelined fairways with gentle elevation changes and mountain backdrops make this an outstanding site.

Although the weather this spring has been difficult, the new wall-to-wall coverage Toro irrigation system installation at the Picture Butte Golf Course in Southern Alberta is moving along nicely.

Soil conditions are perfect for trenching which allows for easier cleanup and compaction over the large diameter HDPE pipe. Accurate sprinkler head staking and layout is critical to the success of the project.

The warmer spring weather has finally arrived (a few weeks late) in the Calgary area. That means the golf construction crews are also back on site at the Bearspaw Country Club to complete the improvements to the 5th green & pond, and new tees on the 3rd hole.

Pacific Irrigation is assisting the golf club with the upgraded irrigation design and layout.

You know spring is here in Southern Alberta when it’s time to get back on site at the Picture Butte Golf Club to continue more irrigation system layout prior to construction.

The course will quickly green up with some daytime heat and water - although they received 2” of snow today.

We are looking forward to completing this wall-to-wall 1,000 plus sprinkler head project by early June (weather permitting) for another great client.

The new 18 hole irrigation system installation at the Picture Butte Golf Club in Southern Alberta is moving along nicely. Grassroots Landscaping & Irrigation is now focusing on installing the small diameter 2" HDPE pipe and decoder cables for the sprinkler heads utilizing a vibratory plow machine. The advantage of using a vibratory plow is it minimizes the damage to the existing turfgrass and course restoration work.

Just before the golf club winterizes the irrigation pumping system, Grassroots was able to flush and test the new Toro Infinity sprinkler heads and related irrigation system components - which look great.

For those of you that don't live in Southern Alberta, those intimidating looking clouds in the sky are known as a "Chinook Arch" - which forms when warm, dry westerly winds flow over the Rocky Mountains to create a wave-like cloud formation. On Friday it was 19C / 66 degrees in Picture Butte which is warm for the end of October.
