Rivermont Golf Club adapts after clubhouse fire By AMBER PERRY amber@appenmedia.com
JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — A portion of Rivermont Golf Club on Rivermont Parkway went up in flames March 6, resulting in smoke and water damage to around 90 percent of the clubhouse. Firefighters responded to the scene at around 5:30 a.m. that morning for a fire that took over the laundry room area of the building. General Manager and club owner Chris Cupit said the fire was likely caused by a tree that had fallen on a power panel. A police incident report obtained by Appen Media noted the roof above the kitchen collapsed. Cupit said there were no injuries.
