Opening Weekend Celebration June 2007

‹ › ×

"The First Ball" - The honor of hitting the first official golf shot at The Golf Club at Cape Cod on June 1, 2007 was awarded to Charlie Passios, consultant and TGC CEO by owner Martin J. Shaevel. "Charlie deserves the honor," Marty said.

Jacqueline Shaevel was the first woman golfer to officially play The Golf Club on June 1, 2007.

Director of Golf, Doug Errhalt, was ever-present on June 1 - Day 1 of play at The Golf Club.

The temporary TGC Members' Lounge was opened to Members on Sunday, June 3 with a gala brunch reception featuring TGC course architect Rees Jones.

The TGC Golf Shop was also opened to Members on June 3, 2007. Located in temporary quarters, the Golf Shop moved to the TGC Clubhouse when it opened in June 2008.

Over 100 TGC Members participated in the Opening Day festivities, including greetings from owner Martin J. Shaevel's son Kenny, CEO Charlie Passios, Course Superintendent Greg Hollick and Rees Jones.

Owner Martin J. Shaevel's son, Kenny, welcomed TGC Members to the official opening of The Golf Club.

"Words to the Wise" - TGC Course Superintendent Greg Hollick offered some inside knoweldge and advice to TGC Members before heading out onto the course.

"Man on a Mission" - Coordination of the Members' turnout left little time for director of golf, Doug Errhalt, to enjoy the introductory speeches.

Liz Abeltin, TGC executive assistant, provided a traditional Scottish tone (or should we say, in bagpiping parlance, drone?) to the Opening Day event.

"Two Happy Fellows" - TGC owner Martin J. Shaevel and son Kenny share the excitement felt by TGC Members. "A star is born," said Marty. "This is a wonderful day, a wonderful course."

Rees Jones had a few final words of instruction for the gallery assembled at the first tee before taking the first shot of the day.

"We Could Get Used to This" - TGC Members enjoyed gourmet food cooked to order at the midway house nearing completion.

The pot bunker on the seventh hole proved to be challenging to many, but not for some.

Members who scored well during the opening day tournament were presented crystal vases to commemorate their record-setting round.

Excavation began on the foundation for the clubhouse at The Golf Club of Cape Cod on June 1. The 25,000-square-foot clubhouse was opened on June 1, 2008.
