along with tremendous support from
volunteers, most of whom live in the
1,100-home King's Grant subdivision.
"Our volunteers are unbelievable,"
said Blanton, who's in the air-
conditioning business. e volunteers
help out with course operations, the
club's social media outlets and its
burgeoning array of social functions.
"is place was slammed with people
for our Super Bowl party this year,"
Blanton said.
e club, which also has a swimming
pool, has added social members since
the new owners took over.
"I feel like we are winning on that
side," Rodriguez said. "If we can put
things in place to get the golf course
right, then I think it will be a win-win.
I think we are making strides."
In its bid to attract new players, as
well as win back former players, the
club last summer began some youth-
outreach programs, including one-day
golf camps for tweens and young teens
enrolled at local recreation centers
and at the Boys and Girls Clubs of
Cumberland County.
"You could see that most of them
had no idea what they were coming
to," Rodriguez said. "ey thought it
was going to be boring. But it was well
organized by Brian and his staff and
the kids just had a blast. Our members
welcomed it. ey were happy to see
the kids out there."
e club followed those programs
up with two week-long golf camps that
drew about 600 youths. ose will be
held again in July.
