The Master Plan for the Golf Course Over the years, many changes had been made to the golf course for a variety of different reasons, including personal preference, maintenance of the facilities, and natural growth of trees. A cursory view of old photographs revealed the stark difference in the way the course played in the 1930s and 1940s to the way the course was playing in the early 2000s. Primary amongst the changes have been the removal and revision of various tees and bunkers. Certain greens were also allowed to shrink and evolve in a manner
different from the original visions of Bendelow and Ross. Upon his hire, Green Superintendent Ted White suggested that the club needed a Master Plan for the golf course so that he could have a clear understanding of improvements to be made and a clear understanding of the work that needed to be done to restore and improve the greens and bunkers. At this time, Board President Dave Lockard commissioned a Master Plan Committee to hire and direct an architect to establish a Master Plan for the golf course.
