Eagle Creek Golf Club, A Course Of “Firsts,” Officially Opens In Southeast Orlando

ORLANDO, FL - The much-anticipated official opening of Eagle Creek Golf Club and its vintage New England manor-style clubhouse in Southeast Orlando takes place today.
The initial golf event to have full run of the Eagle Creek complex is the Arnold Palmer Children’s Hospital Charity Classic, which tees off at 8:30.

“We are thrilled with the final product,” said General Manager Gary Piotrowski. “I look at the clubhouse as it stands now and think back to
a year ago when we could only imagine this sight. We are very excited that this day has finally arrived.”

The golf course has hosted some limited play in recent weeks, and reviews have been outstanding.“It is a fun course to play,” said Jim Gleason of Lake Mary, FL. “There is plenty of room off the tee, but the challenge comes on the approach shots. You have to hit the right places on the greens or you may have trouble making par.”

“Eagle Creek is awesome,” said Jeff Parkinson of Ohio. “Great layout. Super condition. The greens are so true. It’s hard to believe they are brand new. It’s a lot of fun to play. We’ll be back here next year.”

Eagle Creek is a fascinating Ron Garl/Howard Swan design located on Narcoosssee Road near prestigious Lake Nona. The 7,198-yard, par-73
layout is a strategically demanding yet very playable golf course, featuring ample landing areas and challenging green complexes. Swan's
European background is apparent in the course's bunkering, as many of the 90 sand bunkers are revetted, creating challenging recovery shots.
The first unique aspect of Eagle Creek is the grass on its greens.

Eagle Creek is the first course in Florida to offer Mini Verde, the fifth type of ultra dwarf Bermuda in existence. Mini Verde provides extremely durable and fast-rolling putting surfaces, according to results seen in other parts of the south.

Says Eagle Creek Golf Course Superintendent Buck Buckner, formerly of Isleworth Country Club in Orlando, “Mini Verde will tolerate low mowing heights which equates to faster greens. And, the putting surfaces will have a darker green color. The result for golfers is a very enjoyable
putting experience.”

Five other states – Texas, Mississippi, South Carolina, Arizona and Louisiana, - feature courses with Mini Verde greens. There will be many
more in the future. Another “first” among Central Florida courses is the use of Club Car’s
high-end Precedent, a completely re-deigned golf car, so different that it required a brand new manufacturing plant to produce it. Precedent
will provide Eagle Creek customers a ride and drive similar to that of an automobile. Golfers will notice several features on the car that
will make the golf experience more enjoyable and comfortable.

“We're delighted that Eagle Creek has chosen Club Car and our new Precedent golf car,” said Bill Gordon, Branch Manager for Club Car –
Florida. “Precedent represents a quantum leap in golf car design and certainly reinforces Eagle Creek's commitment to providing the finest
products and services to enhance the golf experience.”

Precedent was introduced at the NGCOA Solutions Summit in January, and Eagle Creek is among the first courses in the country to contract for
the high-end cars.

A third very unique aspect of Eagle Creek is its total par. With five par 5’s, Eagle Creek plays to a par 73, the only course in Central Florida to do so. Golfers generally favor par 5’s, and none will be more enjoyable than the terrific finishing hole. The 483-yard par 5 offers golfers a chance to finish in glory, reaching the green in two.
But the sloping putting surface is bordered in front and to the right by water, requiring extreme accuracy on the approach.

The unique experience also will be evident in the tournament service package created by PGA Professional Tony Crawford and his staff. It is
called Five Star Tournament Service, and that’s exactly what event organizers will experience.
"Tournaments and events will be a big part of our business," said Crawford. "We want to deliver a product so impressive and consistent that the groups will return year after year."

The concept of Eagle Creek's Five Star Tournament Service is based on the need for tournament organizers to feel they have created a partnership with the golf venue hosting their event. Among the key features are Professional meet-and-greet service with personal welcome
message on golf carts; Golf bag set up with personalized bag tags; Private pre-tournament practice area with golf pro instruction tips;
Full time event manager providing welcome and review of tournament rules before start of play. Preloading services including two iced coolers on carts, goody bags, gifts and rental clubs; Computerized GPS Yardage System with Tournament Leaderboard; Private food & beverage areas for pre- and post-tournament functions; PGA Scorecast Scoring System, and complimentary hole-in-one contest for an automobile.

One other unique aspect: There isn’t another clubhouse in Central Florida quite like Eagle Creek’s, a vintage New England manor in
appearance overlooking the 18th hole. It features a 120-seat restaurant, a banquet room that accommodates 50 people, men's and women's locker rooms and a fully stocked pro shop.
In addition, Eagle Creek is an Audubon International Silver Signature course.

Eagle Creek's location, just 12 minutes from the Orlando International Airport, makes it a natural site for group outings and convention golfers. It is destined to become a favorite of the locals as well.

The golf course is "Distinctive Orlando Golf With A European Flair." It is designed to blend unobtrusively with the soon-to-be built homes in the master-planned Eagle Creek Golf Community. Homebuyers will have the option of choosing from different communities that will make up Eagle Creek. In addition, there will be a community park and recreation center for residents.
