The 25th Anniversary of the MacGregor Golf Course



Twenty-fifth anniversaries are important. Last night at the MacGregor Gold Club, I was at the dinner to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Twenty five years ago, a number of visionary leaders, a few of whom were there last night, took steps to build the golf course. It has been a success.

Though I was not out playing golf yesterday, there were many who were. For fun, the tournament had a variety of special twists - one hole you had to play only a seven iron. On another hole, you had to use a driver to putt on the green. This is one of the reasons the course has survived and done well - a sense of fun as well as a commitment to keeping the golf course in good shape.

Well done to all those who have helped contribute to the 25 successful years at the MacGregor Golf Club. In the photo above, Melody Chambers, one of the prime organizers for the event, waves her knife before plunging it into the cake.
