| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the preparation involved for Chris Gaughan, superintendent of the Eugene Country Club in Eugene, Oregon, to get the golf course ready for the USGA Women's Mid-Amateur competition. Describes the history of the golf course including the people involved in creating it in 1899 and renovating it in 1967. Discusses how Chris Gaughan came to be superintendent of the golf course. Describes the maintenance program at the golf course, stating that "the fairways are fertilized in June, July and September. . .ponds and streams punctuate the front side at Eugene, and Gaughan relies on a control agent to keep the water healthy." Describes the golf course's surroundings, explaining that "though the greens and the waterways enhance the visual quality of the course, it is the massive trees that provide an aura that is hard to match." |
