By Shuttle Meadow Country Cub, August 28 - updated October 29 - Berlin, Connecticut

Founded in 1899, just ten years after hickory golf clubs first arrived in America, our club was established by prominent business and community leaders including Stanley, Corbin, Smith, Hart, Pease, Moore, and Baldwin. That same year, the club helped co-found the Connecticut State Golf Association, affirming its early leadership in the sport. In 1916, the club made a visionary decision to create a world-class course, contributing to the dawn of golf’s “Golden Age” of architecture with the design of its new Shuttle Meadow facility. Guided by a commitment to quality and the traditions of “the royal and ancient game,” the club built a legacy of excellence for a privileged membership. Shuttle Meadow represents golf as it was meant to be—an authentic original designed in the Scottish tradition by Willie Park Jr., known as “the man who brought golf to the world.” Park designed and built only thirteen courses, and this was his historic first on American soil. His elite designs include Sunningdale in England, and Maidstone, Olympia Fields, and Woodway in the United States. His courses have hosted the U.S., British, and Canadian Open Championships. When Park arrived in America, he was the most influential figure in the game: a two-time British Open champion, the second-largest club manufacturer in Britain, holder of four patents for club designs, author of two golf books, and a pioneering architect whose innovative layouts helped shape modern golf in the United States. His work has stood the test of time, and today he is honored as a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame. Established on its current site in 1917, the club opened its historic clubhouse, designed by Kenneth Murchison, an architect whose clientele included distinguished families such as the Astors and Vanderbilts. Unlike many other facilities, Shuttle Meadow’s clubhouse is an original—elegant, timeless, and steeped in history. Many of the greatest golfers in history have walked our fairways, collectively amassing 35 British and U.S. Open Championships. Bobby Jones once remarked that our 14th hole was among the 18 prettiest he had ever played. Set on nearly 400 acres of natural landscape, Shuttle Meadow offers superlative golf, tennis, pool, and clubhouse amenities. It remains one of the most beautiful and traditional golf and country clubs in existence—a living vision from 1899. Today, the club continues to invest in its future. We are currently replacing the irrigation system with a Toro 2-wire HDPE system, and have implemented a master plan in collaboration with Brad Klein and Nick Campanelli. This plan includes bunker renovations, fairway and green expansions, tee restorations to their original locations, new cart paths, and an extensive tree removal program—all designed to preserve and enhance the course’s historic integrity while meeting modern standards. Oversee daily course setup, including pin placements, tee markers, and hazard management Manage chemical and fertilizer applications with precision and environmental care Maintain detailed records of treatments, irrigation schedules, and turf conditions Supervise and coordinate a seasonal staff of up to 20 employees during peak season Monitor and adjust moisture levels to ensure optimal turf health and playability Perform and oversee irrigation system repairs, including troubleshooting and part replacement Ensure all staff adhere to safety protocols and operate equipment responsible
