GREEN RENOVATION UPDATES
UPDATE FROM 9 SEP 2025
St. Johns Golf & Country Club will officially reopen on Friday, September 19, 2025 at 11:00am, featuring our brand-new TifEagle greens.

UPDATE FROM 6 JUN 2025

We’re pleased to share that the greens renovation is progressing right on schedule. Beginning next Tuesday, MacCurrach will start placing sprigs on holes 1–4, 9, 18, the putting and chipping areas, and the new nursery green. With the additional sod being brought in, we expect nine holes to be completed by the end of next week.

Meanwhile, JB and his team have been hard at work maximizing the course closure. They’ve focused on the fairways, short grass, and rough—top dressing and aerating trouble spots to encourage healthy turf recovery. Just last week, they verticut the fairways to thin out excess growth and enhance the overall playing surface.

UPDATE FROM 21 FEB 2025

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter for St. Johns Golf & Country Club as we embark on a comprehensive green’s renovation project. This initiative presents a wonderful opportunity to restore our course to the exceptional playing conditions that have been enjoyed in years past.

The renovation will begin on May 5, 2025, with an anticipated completion in early October. During this period, our agronomic team will also conduct aeration of tees and fairways, along with addressing several key areas that are typically challenging to maintain during peak playing times. 

In addition to the course improvements, the upcoming Toptracer installation will provide an exciting way to refine your game. Members will have the opportunity to practice, sharpen their skills, and even experience playing renowned courses from around the world. 

As part of this transition, we are pleased to offer exclusive access for members and their guests starting in late July, when we will introduce temporary greens. This will allow you to witness the progress of the renovation firsthand while still enjoying the opportunity to play. During this time, our course hours will be Tuesday through Sunday, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with tee times available exclusively to members and their guests. 

On or around September 7, 2025, the course will be temporarily closed to finalize preparations for our grand reopening. This final phase will allow our agronomic team to apply the finishing touches as we prepare to unveil our newly restored greens.

UPDATE FROM 09 SEP 2024

The revitalization of our greens is already underway, and we're excited to introduce you to the company leading the project: MacCurrach Golf. With over 30 years of experience, MacCurrach Golf "proudly supports the vision of the architect…so that their design can come to life." Their expertise ensures our greens will be restored to their full potential.

You may have noticed someone on the course Tuesday, maneuvering a three-wheeled cart. He was mapping the greens for next year's renovation—an essential first step. This detailed mapping will help contractors pinpoint where the original edges end and the collars begin, allowing them to restore the greens to their intended design.

What is GPS mapping?

MacCurrach Golf seamlessly integrates modern technology with on-site construction, making it a crucial part of their operation. They use Trimble GPS data collectors, robotic total stations, and cloud-based data storage to ensure precision and efficiency throughout the process.

3D greens mapping with reconstruction to sub-centimeter accuracy

  • Use of 3D surface models and machine-controlled GPS dozers, including immediate uploads of adjustments to ‘revise on the fly’
  • On-demand layout work and feature staking with survey grade precision
  • Daily data collection & quantity measurements
  • CAD based as-built mapping

UPDATE FROM 23 AUG 2024

We hope you have had time to review the Greens Renovation packet that was sent out. If you have not received it, please reach out to Janelle at jzenner@stjohnsgolf.com.

The reaction from the membership has been overwhelmingly positive to this project and we appreciate all the support. Replacing the 24-year-old greens is a massive undertaking in planning and logistics and your excitement makes it all worthwhile.

Next spring, the course will remain open until May 5th. After the closure, our contractor will commence the renovation. A necessary step to prepare the greens will be to spray the existing surfaces with herbicide to eliminate the current cultivar. Sprays will start at the end of March. Through April, the putting surfaces will become faster and faster! They will be exciting to putt on and will give a unique experience!

The Golf Shop is preparing its Tournament schedule for the 2025. Be on the lookout for our modified calendar as we do our best to offer fun events around the renovation.
