The new building at the Longs, S.C. club will feature an open floor plan, enhanced kitchen and sports bar-like feel. The property’s 27-hole golf course closed in the aftermath of Hurricane Florence, but will re-open for play on February 23.
Aberdeen Country Club, located in Longs, S.C. and operated by Founders Group International (FGI), will reopen its golf course for public play on February 23. The 27-hole facility closed in the aftermath of Hurricane Florence to rebuild its clubhouse.
FGI hired the Kimberly Bryant Design Group to spearhead the rebuilding of the new clubhouse, which will feature an open floor plan, enhanced kitchen, and sports bar-like feel.
While the 4,000-sq.-ft clubhouse, which suffered water damage in post-storm flooding, was being rebuilt, FGI’s Director of Agronomy, Max Morgan, and his team were worked to ensure the club’s Woodlands, Meadows and Highlands nines would be in peak condition when Aberdeen reopened.
“Aberdeen Country Club was enjoying a great 2018, prior to Hurricane Florence, and it’s in even better shape heading into this spring,” said Steve Mays, President of Founders Group International. “As pleased as we are with the course’s recovery, we are equally excited to help the Aberdeen community take the next step in its rebuilding process. The golf course is a focal point of the community, and it’s going to be as good as it has ever been on February 23.”
Last fall, FGI closed Long Bay Club, a Jack Nicklaus design located just miles away, for a charity golf tournament that raised more than $6,700 for the Aberdeen Homeowners Association.
“There hasn’t been a divot taken at Aberdeen since September, and we couldn’t be happier with the course’s comeback,” said Matt Daly, FGI’s Director of Golf Course Operations. “Our entire team is looking forward to welcoming golfers back and also having them enjoy the new clubhouse, which I believe will enhance the Aberdeen experience.”
Aberdeen, a Scottish links-style design, also has a new fleet of E-Z-Go golf carts awaiting players upon their return to the Tom Jackson-designed course.
