Hunters Run Takes A Giant Step In Its "Progress In Motion" Campaign

$9.5 Million Kipp Schulties East Course Renovation Completed

BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. - Jan. 20, 2025 - PRLog -- In a significant milestone for Hunters Run Country Club, Richard Kapner, Club Chairman, officially cut the ribbon, marking the completion of the Club's $9.58 million East Golf Course renovation. Designed by the renowned Kipp Schulties Golf Designs, the updated 18-hole course, one of three at Hunters Run, is currently in its grow-in phase following construction, which began in March 2024.

"The East Course has been a staple of our golfing experience since its last renovation in 2008. Over the years, it has withstood the challenges of time, year-round play, and a dramatic increase in rounds," said Larry Savvides, Chief Operating Officer and General Manager. "This renovation is a step in ensuring that as part of the Club's prize assets, it is preserved for optimum playability for current and future members. I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the unwavering support of the membership and the Board in making today possible."

The project with Kipp Schulties also included collaboration with Ragan Technical Solutions (RTS), Flynn Engineering, the USGA, and Toro, with significant upgrades:

• Re-grassed fairways and tees with Celebration Bermudagrass for optimal playability.
• Expanded and leveled tees for a more accommodating golfing experience.
• Reshaped and lined bunkers to modernize the course and improve maintenance.
• Restored and improved greens, regaining lost surfaces.
• Enhanced drainage systems to improve course durability.
• Built bulkheads to stabilize lake banks, enhancing aesthetics and preventing erosion.
• Updated irrigation systems and infrastructure for efficient water management.
• Elevated low-lying areas to prevent flooding from heavy rain.
