September 4, 11, & 18 Friday Night Buffet Dinners We will be serving a dinner buffet every Friday evening before home football games this fall. The only games we will not be having dinners are September 25, November 6, and November 27.
Congratulations to this year's Club Champion, Bob Dumas, and the Senior Champion, Reggie Gilbert. Shooting the exact same score on both days, they shot an impressive 74 on Saturday and sealed their wins by scoring 72 on Sunday!
Bill Kratzert is among the newest members of the Auburn University Club family!! He and his wife currently reside in Ponte Vedra, FL and his son is a student at Auburn University. As most of you know, Bill is a former PGA tour player and champion and is currently a commentator for PGA tour events on TNT and other major networks.
This football season is a highly anticipated one for obvious reasons. With a brand new coaching staff, a new quarterback, and an old quarterback playing wide receiver, many fans find themselves filled with excitement while others are full of skepticism. I think it's safe to say that no matter the attitude, we are all more than anything curious to see how these changes are going to play out on the field.
Whatever reason brings you to Auburn on Saturdays this fall, know that one thing remains the same - a round of golf at the Auburn University Club and an intimate, no-fuss place to dine with family and friends! We look forward to seeing you this fall!!
Keep in mind when making your game day plans:
-In case you get to town extra early, we will be serving a Southern style dinner buffet every Thursday before home games. Reservations are recommended.(We will not be serving a burffet, Thursday, September 3rd).
-Dinner buffets every Friday evening before home football games. Reservations are recommended.
-Call in advance to reserve your tee time because we will be busy on Fridays as well as Saturdays with a late kick-off.
From the Superintendent:
-The new Champion Turf practice green should be ready for use within the month of September. Please check with the Proshop.
-Reminder: Please help us keep the golf course in great shape by sanding all divots and repairing all ball marks.
