(1385-01) Balancing design, construction, and maintenance priorities is critical for a successful golf course renovation but getting the best results from sometimes competing interests can be challenging. Architectural goals may cause maintenance issues, construction factors may negatively impact the architectural process, and issues with any area of the project may lead to unhappy golfers. In this seminar, we will outline strategies for planning and executing a small- or large-scale golf course renovation project and give you a better understanding of the architectural and construction considerations that influence the process. We will enhance these points by taking an in-depth look at the highly acclaimed renovation of Congressional Country Club’s Blue Course with the team that led the project. When golf course superintendents, builders, and architects collaborate effectively they can avoid common pitfalls and deliver a renovation project that provides enjoyable golf for decades to come.

Andrew Green, President and Principal Architect, A.H. Green Design/Green Golf & Turf, Inc., Kyle J. Trzasksos, Senior Project Manager at McDonald & Sons Inc. and Peter M. Wendt CGCS, Director of Golf Courses and Grounds, Congressional Country Club will join us during the session to discuss their recent work at Congressional’s Blue Course.
