Intown Member Handbook - BUCKHEAD

Page 1

It started at Jack’s Deli on Piedmont Rd in late 2018...

As I look back and reflect on IGC’s origin story, it all began because golf has the amazing ability to bring people together. I’ve met some of my best friends through golf. And the game has this great connectivity when you’re part of the community.

The opportunity we are trying to create at Intown Golf Club starts with the fact that golf takes a lot of time and investment. To play a round of golf, it’s five hours and you have to go through a lot of effort. And to join a private club is expensive. Access to that community and access to golf has a lot of barriers, unfortunately. Our goal with Intown is to create an environment that is curated from some of the best experiences we’ve had through the game of golf and make that accessible in terms of time, cost, and ease. With our flagship location in Buckhead, we have designed an incredible twelve thousand square foot space that combines a social club with top-notch indoor golf technology, built around a high quality community of like-minded individuals.

Our goal is to start here in Atlanta, curate the best experience we can, build the best community we can, and replicate that in a lot of places - providing access to people from all walks of life, across the United States, and hopefully, beyond. Overall, I believe we have the opportunity to be part of the next major shift in the game of golf which includes growing the sport through untraditional golf spaces in a very welcoming, approachable, and unique way.

This non-traditional approach to a traditional sport also informs the membership. Our wish is for the hardcore and novice, young and old, men and women, black and white, to get together around the game and create the type of community absent from most traditional private golf clubs.

In many ways, where we end up in this effort is determined by where we started, which in this particular case, with the people I chose to have lunch with at Jack’s Deli. In that same vein, I am delighted that you chose us, and that we chose you to be part of something unique and special. So on behalf of the IGC founders and staff, congratulations on becoming a member, and welcome to Intown Golf Club.

Sincerely,

NO MATTER THE WEATHER
