After a successful 2020 amid the Covid-19 pandemic, the Roads End Golf Club is building on that growth.

New sand traps, a new golf cart, new balls with the club鈥檚 logo on, new members and extra nights are all on par this year, with one new member already hitting a hole in one.

Chris Gruben cracked a 96-yard drive on the sixth hole, a par 3 course, on July 19. He is just one of several new members to the club this year.

鈥淚t鈥檚 been great!鈥� said club executive Steve Krug. 鈥淎wesome weather, new members, new ladies night and our men鈥檚 night is a new record for registration.

鈥淲e opened 10 days sooner than last season 鈥� course was a bit wet when it opened but it鈥檚 in good shape now. We need some rain though.鈥�

Golfers have been getting lots of time on the fairways. Krug noted the club鈥檚 June 9-10 tournament drew 19 twosomes. Three divisions were set up 鈥� men鈥檚, women鈥檚 and mixed.

Krug said the club was working on having a few other tournaments, but was first coordinating with the other sports leagues in town so there鈥檚 no overlap and athletes don鈥檛 have to choose between golf, baseball or squash.

One tournament in the works is a 鈥済low ball鈥� tournament for when the sun starts setting again. Krug said golfers would likely tee off around 9 or 10 p.m. when the sun begins to set and play on into the night.

鈥淚t will be the club鈥檚 last event for the summer tentatively for the weekend after the September long weekend,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 going to be lit.鈥�

In the interim, the club is hosting weekly ladies nights on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. with 10 golfers currently registered.

Men鈥檚 nights are on Thursdays and Krug said there were 25 registered as of current, which is a new record for the club.

鈥淯sually it鈥檚 20 to 22 registrations but this year we had a few more,鈥� he said. 鈥淲e鈥檙e hoping the weather stays nice for everyone鈥檚 sake and hope to see some new faces on the course on in the driving range.

鈥淭hank you to everyone who鈥檚 been supporting the club this year!鈥�
