Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Echo Lake Country Club in Westfield, New Jersey, focusing on the potential benefits in hosting golf tournaments. Discusses the 1994 United States Junior Amateur Championship held at the course, stating that "we developed timetables, established expectations of how our members and staff would interact, and identified a few areas of weakness at our own club." Continues to detail the hosting of the 2002 United States Girls' Junior Championship. Concludes that "the real value, sometimes hidden, was to the course and our members. In our experience, the bar has been raised permanently." |
