It had been quite a while since I ventured up to Sterling Farms Golf Course and it was long overdue. So I was happy to get this assignment from our sports department on the renovations at the club. The course was a buzz of activity with foursomes on every hole, golfers on the putting green perfecting their short game, a group of campers gathered on the driving range, young tennis players dressed in white volleying on the newly resurfaced courts and cast and crew preparing for Shakespeare on The Green. But amid all this summer activity I actually heard a man say “Football season is just a few months away.” So before we find ourselves gathered on the sidelines in 30 degree weather, get up to Sterling Farms and enjoy.
