| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles golf course architect, Ralph Barton, highlighting his educational and career achievements. Describes Barton's work at the Concord Country Club in Concord, New Hampshire, and details phase one of the renovation of nine holes at Concord Country Club, by Ross Forbes, originally designed by Geoff Cornish. States that "work began in the fall of 2005, but rain and snow threatened the schedule...The Project was suspended in December 2005 for winter and resumed in April 2006." Concludes that "hopefully when [the] holes are completed, the entire course will look and play like an original Ralph Barton creation. Both architects will then be proud and pleased." |
