The Renovation of Charleston Municipal Golf Course | Episode 10
Manage episode 359403200 series 2930788
In this episode of the "National Links Trust Podcast", we highlight the renovation of Charleston Municipal Golf Course. The course was renovated in 2020 by Charleston native, Troy Miller. Paying homage to nearby Yeamans Hall Club and the Country Club of Charleston, it was designed in the style of Seth Raynor. Since its reopening, the course has received universal acclaim, with The Fried Egg's Andy Johnson writing, "Above all, Charleston Municipal makes an emphatic case that municipal golf courses don’t have to be bland. They can take architectural risks, and they should, like the downtown buildings and botanic gardens that tourists love, offer a flavor of local history."
Guests on this episode include Miller, Lea Anne Brown (Friends of the Muni Board Member), and John Tecklenburg (Mayor of Charleston).
This episode was recorded during the fifth installment of the "Municipal Golf Network Webinar Program". The program, created by National Links Trust, is now in its second year and has highlighted municipal golf courses such as Winter Park Golf Course in Winter Park, Florida and Buffalo Dunes Golf Course in Garden City Kansas.
