The Watersound Club in Florida’s Panhandle has experienced a lot of recent growth (both in terms of membership and about $50+ million worth of new amenities built, with a new golf course designed by Davis Love III on the horizon. Club + Resort Talks chats with Vicki Burris, Director of Membership on the challenges and opportunities of a rapidly growing membership, how the club saw that trend play out across the pandemic, and the expansion they’re seeing come to fruition as a result of that growth.

Editor Rob Thomas and Senior Editor Phil Keren also touch upon some recent news across the industry, from a new course planned at St. John’s Resort in Plymouth, Mich. and the revival of The Preserve At Beacon Hill near Leesburg, Va., to Anthem Country Club saving nearly 60 million gallons of water through maintenance practices and vandals striking a course with MAGA propaganda.
