Well, one of our members put together a plan that was accepted by the owner.  The club will not close.  I don't feel free to comment on the plan in this forum.  If any of you are interested in playing send me a personal message and I can set it up for you.

I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

Tommy, that is just fantastic news!  I really felt after our day there that something would work out, but these days one never knows.  I'm happy for you, the other members, and especially for Jeff and the rest of the staff.

Please come down to Camden on your next visit

Tommy - congratulations

One question - how did the members figure it out without the input from everyone on this board ;)

We can house four in guest rooms in the clubhouse and 16 in the cottages.
I'd be glad to set something up for 2013.

Wade, I think it would be fun to have a home and away between MM and your favorite course in the world.  They are about five hours apart. MM has some tricky pin placements sometimes, but none like we saw yesterday.   :)

Thanks for the post Tommy.

From what I understand things should be more formalized in some meetings that will happen this Wednesday.  But yes all of the news so far has been positive, it looks like it will not be ceasing operations in Dec as originally announced.

And I second what Tommy said, anyone who wants to get out to see this unique place let me know and one of us should be able to make it happen.

Ladies in my house are now going to be shopping into the wee hours of the morning on Black Friday.  Thinking about heading out to The Mill in the am on short notice.  Anyone on here near here care to join me?  JC, Mark, Jayme, anyone???

Weather is supposed to be nice, grass still has a light shade of green.  Now might be the perfect time.  Post here, or email me.

Thanks,
Turboe

Now you post!!  I'd be all over it but we are headed to the mountains to cut down our Christmas tree.

Play well!

I finally got to play it a few weeks ago due to Jeff Tallman's generosity.  So far it is
MMill -1... Roger-0.

I can't wait for another shot at it.

Well I got my letter in the mail yesterday so it is now official.  they are having one more meeting early next week to dot the "i's" and cross the "t's" but Musgrove Mill is not closing and there will be some limited number of creative membership categories available it looks like.  So good news for all of us members, golf lovers across the SE, and especially the staff and their families who would have suffered the most in a potential shutdown if it would have happened.

Again anyone interested in hearing more email me, and better yet come on down and see us.  We would love to show you around.

Turboe

ps I was out there this morning again and the greens were more receptive as they are softening up for the winter, but still rolling about 12-13 I would guess.  Just fantastic!!

I've been a visitor of the Mill for 12 years now.   I can't explain the feeling I get once I'm on the property.  Musgrove Mill is a very special place.  I talked to Jeff during the Invitational about a month ago and he explained that if it stayed open there would be some outstanding options for those who wanted to join.  I look forward for the chance to become apart of a club like Musgrove Mill.

Musgrove Mill is now offering an outstanding National Membership opportunity... one of the best I have EVER seen for a course/club of this quality.

They don't want me to post the details online, but I can share it with anyone who is interested via email. If you would like more information just send me an email at md.whitaker@me.com .There are a very limited number of these National memberships available, so don't snooze or this opportunity may pass you by.

By the way... I'm joining as a local member this week!
