Summary:
Verrado Golf Club has exciting updates for its members and golfers this summer. The club announced a complete bunker restoration for the Founders Course, set to begin on June 17th and conclude by mid-September. This project, aimed at improving the aesthetics and playability of the course, will be executed by Payson Golf Construction LLC and overseen by Ken Baker of One Club Inc.
To facilitate ongoing play, nine holes will remain open while work is in progress and golfers will have the opportunity to play the open 9 holes twice in their round for a total of 18 holes. Once the front nine is renovated, it will open for play, and work will shift to the back nine. During this period, the driving range will remain operational, and additional project work will continue throughout the summer.
In addition to the bunker restoration, regular aerification and maintenance schedules have been announced for both the Victory and Founders Courses. These efforts ensure that all members and visitors can enjoy a well-maintained and enhanced golfing experience throughout the summer months.
The Cliff House and both driving ranges will operate under summer hours to accommodate the needs of the golfers during this period. Verrado Golf Club is committed to maintaining high-quality facilities and providing an excellent golfing experience.
