Driving Range Plan      Site Plan Phase 1     Site Plan Phase 2

Phase 1 would be completed as soon as possible and would include remodeling and additions to the clubhouse. A new rest rooms and a bar would be added. New dining rooms would be added for general dining and for use by groups, including golf outings. A new patio would be built. Parking would be added closer to the clubhouse to attract non-golfers year-round. Parking lot lighting would be added. The bar, dining room, and patio decor would be upgraded. A small 10-12 space driving range tee addition would be built west of the driving range tee. This addition would include an artificial tee line with an overhead cover for use in inclement weather and infra-red heaters for cold weather. Water, electric, and gas utility lines serving the clubhouse would be replaced. The parking lot would be renovated. Clubhouse site facilities (motor cart parking, putting greens, etc.) would be reconfigured.

 

Phase 2 would be completed at a future date, as finances allow. In Phase 2, the original clubhouse would be demolished, including everything south of the existing main entrance, all three locker rooms, rest rooms and Pro Shop. The driving range tee would be rebuilt and expanded north in the space that the original clubhouse occupies. The driving range tee would include an artificial turf tee line extending across the entire back of the tee. A protective covering for that tee line would be built, along with a room for storing and washing driving range balls, and a station for the 9-hole course starter. The driving range tee would be lighted for night use. The first tee of the 9-hole course would be shifted to the east to allow further expansion of the driving range tee. Cart storage buildings would be added, with electrical service for electric carts and water and sewer for cart washing. A new Pro Shop would be built. The finished clubhouse would not have any locker or shower facilities. Phase 2 could be completed all at once or could be split into separate smaller projects.

In Phase 2, the driving range tee would be expanded to the north. To make room for the larger practice tee, the south portion of the clubhouse would be demolished and motor cart parking and the 9-hole course first tee would be relocated. When completed, the practice tee would be about 70% larger than the current tee, providing improved turf conditions.
