We would like to thank the Men's Golf Association for providing the water cooler stands with clocks on the upper and lower range tees. If you would like to join the MGA, you may do so at anytime of the year. The cost is $50 annually. Please contact Kevin Lauderdale if you are interested. He may be reached via email at transtara@bellsouth.net. 

Just like last month, there's not too much going on in February besides some very cold temperatures. Just a reminder, when we have a hard freeze (20s and below), we cover the greens. If there is a morning frost, tee times are delayed until the frost melts. Always call the Proshop for the status of the golf course. If no one answers, the information will be on the Proshop's voicemail.

The Clubhouse Grill is also closed on days that the golf course is closed except for Mondays, Thursdays, and Sundays when we serve lunch buffets.

We are offering our special "Friends on Fridays" guest rates again this year. Whatever the temperature is when the Proshop opens on Friday morning is what the guest fee for that day will be. For example, if it is 37 degrees at 8:00 am, your guest will pay $37 to play 18 holes that day.

We are now proud to carry Peter Millar apparel. The Auburn University Club and Shoal Creek are currently the only Clubs in Alabama to carry this line of fine golf apparel. We also have Auburn University Club and Yarbrough Farms sweat shirts for sale and a new stock of American Needle hats and visors.
