BEST GOLF COURSE
Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club ‘Tradition is very important to us’
Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club 550 Johnny Cash Pkwy. Hendersonville 615-824-6528
The Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club has an 18hole, par-72 golf course on Johnny Cash Parkway in Hendersonville. It opened in 1951 and now has over 660 members. The club hosts several tournaments throughout the year, including being part of the Ashworth Elite Series. According to club representative Lisa Stubbs, because Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club belongs to the ClubCorp Network of country clubs, members can take advantage of discounts at Bluegrass as well as at the company’s more than 200 private golf and country clubs, busi-
ness clubs and resorts. Stubbs said that joining the Bluegrass Yacht & Country Club means not only becoming a member of a golf club but also a community. “Tradition is very important to us,” she said. “We have members who are grandchildren – third generation members.” She said the club works hard to have a strong connection with the community as a whole. “Once a year, we have a tournament where we invite the community in; it’s called the ClubCorp Char-
ity Classic, and it is an event where we raise money in connection with the corporation but we choose a local charity,” Stubbs said. “This year, we’re giving to The Edison School.” Aside from the golf course, the private club has other facilities including a restaurant and marina. Its tennis facility was named a “Top 50 Tennis Welcome Center for 2008” by the Tennis Industry Association and United States Tennis Association. Its ballroom can accommodate up to 350 guests and hosts several events throughout the year, many of them open to the general public. —Alexander Quiñones/Sumner County Publications
