Saturday, May 8, 2017 saw sunny skies, light winds and warm temperatures for the grand opening of the remodeled East Nine at Old Oakland Golf Club. It was a perfect day. 150 members showed up ready to play their new nine. It is a privilege to work with Old Oakland Golf Club on the design and construction of their 27 hole golf course remodel.
Below are photographs from the celebration and the initial round. I will be posting more photographs of the golf course and writing about the remodel in the near future. In the meantime, enjoy the photographs. (Click on photographs to enlarge and open slideshow.)
