Winchester CC, Morgan Creek CC and Nakoma Resort(Dragon) are pretty high profile in NoCal and are in financial trouble.
Tim.....Sacramento Golf may be in more hurt than alot of other areas I've heard of if this recession lasts too long.
Don't forget about lesser profile coureses:
....Wild Wings is closing it's doors Jan 1, 2009.....superintendent and assistant are staying on to mow and fertilize, that's it until surrounding homeowners decide if they want to "bail it out"
....Auburn Valley Country Club, even after switching to public from private (similar to Winchester), is still struggling
....Darkhorse, though seeming to hang in there despite long financial struggles, is still not in the clear
Given some of the stories I've heard around the area from other courses not yet in trouble, but taking on HUGE cutbacks, I've got count my lucky stars that we seem to have a pretty unique hold on an isolated market here in Folsom. Seems people need to golf just to try and escape all those recession worries out here.......and I'm glad to see em here!
