I am so Excited to announce that Yesterday Charles Long's company (Germantown Pool & Spa) began work on re-plastering the pool!  When the pool opens in May GCC will have the nicest pool in town!

It is crazy I know but unfortunately we will be covering the greens today to get ready for a cold night.  The greens have begun to come out of dormancy and we do not want the cold evening to damage them.  Anyone interested in playing today will have to tee off before 12:15 pm. 

On Saturday our second Gold Level golf tournament went on without a hitch!  We were so lucky and weather cooperated!  We had another wonderful field with 56 players and on the bottom of this email are all the winners!

This weekend is Easter and I promise it will warm up.  Currently on Good Friday they are forecasting a high of 60!  With it being a Holliday weekend the golf course will be busy so please call 754-6453 to make tee times!  Also don't forget about the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday at 10:30 am!  The Easter Bunny will be here and I can't wait to see the kids dressed up in their Easter dresses!

Best golf since 1970

The Golf Course at Germantown Country Club was designed and built under the supervision of famous golf course designer and architect, J. Press Maxwell, in 1969. The Golf Course was opened along with the other club facilities in July of 1970.

Since the initial inception and construction of the 6,887 yard Championship Golf Course, many additions and changes to the course have taken place. Currently we have TifEagle grass on the greens and 419 Bermuda grass on all the fairways and collars.  Germantown Country Club has the finest putting surface all 12 months of the year of any club in the area.

Germantown Country Club has been selected to host the final Qualifying Rounds for the United States Open Golf Tournament by the USGA on four different occasions. We have also been host to national tournaments for both high school and inter-collegiate golf organizations.

The Club is proud to be a member of the PGA, USGA, TGA and the MGA. These organizations offer tournament competition in which many of our members participate.

Preview the breathtaking beauty of the Germantown Country Club course.
