The City Commission has made an exciting and important decision about the future of Bobby Jones Golf Club and how it will operate once its renovation is complete. The commission has approved an agreement with Indigo Sports LLC to manage our historic golf course. Indigo is a reputable company with expertise in managing more than 140 municipal courses like ours across the United States. Indigo’s responsibilities will include overseeing the installation and maintenance of new grass and the reconstruction and restoration of the historic 18-hole, Donald Ross-designed course. Once the course opens, they will manage all golf operations at Bobby Jones, including hiring employees, marketing the course, providing food and beverage service and more. This is a fiscally responsible decision by the commission, which will still retain oversight of the Bobby Jones budget each year. Indigo will be paid with revenues collected from users of the course. We expect the new and improved course to be a popular destination for residents and visitors alike, and we anticipate that Indigo will be able to deliver excellent customer service and a great golf experience for our patrons. In the meantime, as seen in the image below, significant work is underway and the restoration project at Bobby Jones is expected to be completed in spring 2023.
