We’re five days out from the 2024 Golf Inc. Strategies Summit, and we’re thrilled to once again be joining golf industry professionals and leaders from across the country for three important days of best practice sharing, education and networking. If you’ll be out in Hilton Head, be sure to check out these four panel discussions featuring our very own Steve Skinner, Ben Blake, Keith Karem and B.R. Koehnemann. We hope to see you there x #ThisIsKemperSports
On Monday, Desert Willow Golf Resort proudly celebrated the reopening of its award-winning Firecliff Course after a significant summer renovation project. In addition to enlarging all 18 greens to their original size, each green was converted to Mini Verde Bermuda grass, known for its durability and smooth putting surfaces. All tee boxes were also newly shaped and leveled to enhance playing conditions, helping make one of California's best public courses even better. See the impressive transformation in the pictures below.#ThisIsKemperSports

Last week, we put a bow on our summer programming series with Fore the Ladies, Inc. with our final Happy Hour 9 at Skyway Golf Course at Lincoln Park West. After expanding our partnership this year, we co-hosted 21 events and welcomed nearly 400 women across Skyway, The Glen Club, Harborside International Golf Center and Galloping Hill Golf Course. Special thanks to Abby Liebenthal and Fore the Ladies for their partnership and our four property teams for hosting. We are proud to work with this incredible female-based community that is truly growing the game at the grassroots level by making golf more accessible and approachable for women nationwide, and we look forward to doing it bigger and better in 2025.#MakeGolfCool

History was made at Galloping Hill Golf Course Tuesday as the course hosted Kean University's first-ever men's golf home matches. Kean added both men's and women's golf programs for the first time this fall, and the Golf Course That Never Sleeps is proud to be the home course for both startup squads. It was made even sweeter that the Cougars bested visiting William Paterson University and the University of Mt. St. Vincent to improve to 2-0 on the young season. #ThisIsKemperSports
