Oakridge – Duck Creek Golf

Last Updated 5/3/2013

Thanks for visiting this webpage for updates on the status of the former Oakridge Country Club property.

There appears to have been no action taken by the Oakridge community in regard to organizing and engaging in dialogue with Duck Creek Golf, LP relative to the potential golf course revival. However, there have been many individuals who have expressed their support and willingness to assist with the process.

Duck Creek Golf, LP has created a simple Commitment Form agreement which can be accessed via a link HERE. This form enables interested Oakridge residents and other supporters of revival of the golf course to pledge their financial contribution to the effort. No money will be due or collected until the golf course is reopened for play, but a commitment will obligate a participant to make payment at that time. In the event that the golf course reopening does not occur by October 31, 2013 then no payment would be due. The Commitment Form provides for several levels of funding to be considered including a “write-in amount” blank. You may also make your commitment online via the registration link below.

As previously outlined, Duck Creek Golf has requested $400,000 in project funding assistance from the community. With close to 1,200 homes in the community that would equate to approximately $350 per home if all participated. It is very unlikely that anywhere close to all homeowners will participate, so those who do participate are encouraged to contribute more than $350. Certainly those whose homes back up to the golf course would benefit the most from a golf course revival so it would make sense that they might contribute at the highest level if they participate.

Duck Creek Golf requests that all who are willing to make a commitment please do so by Friday, May 17. We will then review the aggregate level of commitments received by that date and determine whether or not to commence work on the golf course renovation in 2013. If the determination is made to proceed, the work would begin immediately thereafter in concert with the summer growing season. Otherwise there would be no golf course renovation in 2013 and earnest exploration of other options for the property would begin.

Another meeting will be held at the former Oakridge clubhouse on Friday, May 10 at 5:00 pm for further discussion regarding the potential golf course revival. We encourage residents and others who plan to support the project to attend in hopes that we can have a positive and productive discussion. There will be an opportunity for questions and further detail regarding the project at the meeting. All Oakridge community residents are asked to pass word along to neighbors who might have interest in attending. We ask that those who do not support the project or wish to engage in positive discussion please do not attend.

The buffoons who bought the remains of our neighborhood's country club are again begging for donations. Why in the hell would we gift them a dime? We get no chance of any return on our investment, no membership benefits or use of the facilities. They are offering us absolutely nothing. Who in their right mind would agree to these terms? Since when is it ethical or reasonable for business people to bilk the residents for a project they chose to take on of their free will. This is not a community park or anything that would benefit everyone in this area. It is a private business venture that has little chance of succeeding based on the past history of this golf course.

We were members of the neighborhood association for many years. If the association is going to continue posting these obscene solicitations from the idiots that bought the defunct country club we will not be rejoining and I suspect many others will have nothing to do with the association either. This is beyond ridiculous!!!
