ON THE RANGE: TIMELESS BEAUTY

Our new pedestal clock on the warmup range is a handsome addition to the practice area. Timeless in stature, it’s also one of the Club’s new enhancements, courtesy of the 34th U.S. Women’s Mid-Amateur Championship this past September. Other features will include three flagpoles placed on the front mall, a new podium for the bag drop, new cooler for the warm-up range, and other additional items. We were honored to host the Women’s Mid-Am, and the tremendous support from our membership demonstrates what an incredible community we are. In 2017, we committed to not use any income from general operating funds for the tournament. Thanks to many individual donors, our Championship Finance Chair Marc Dulude and his team, we made that a reality. Postponing the Championship also generated additional funds from new members and USGA contributions. The goal was to raise $200,000, and with the second USGA contribution, we exceeded that by $80,000. Funds raised also covered labor expenses for our teams that worked so hard to ensure everyone from the USGA and all participants left saying that “Berkeley Hall was the best venue they’d ever experienced.”
