Facility Names:The Bear Trace, Chickasaw State Rustic Park, in Henderson, Tennessee
Abstract/Contents:Discusses The Bear Trace at Chickasaw in Tennessee, stating that "the facility, because of its stronger sibling courses, does not have to break even to remain open...the course could continue to operate at a loss as long as the others remain in the black." States that "the golf course helps drive tourists to other state park amenities, such as lakes, inns and cabins." Discusses the state of greens at Chickasaw, stating that "if all else fails...the state would consider regrassing the greens to Champion Bermuda." Suggests that "business will come back just like it went away - [one] player at a time."
