New 18 Hole Golf Course Planned at Manchester
A coalition of Manchester area citizens and business leaders with Vermont Investment Corp backing announced plans to build a championship 18 hole golf course on 150 acres north of Beech Street. Designer Geoffrey Cornish will survey the site, with a three stage option through April next year. Financing would rely on local subscriptions and possible federal aid, joining efforts to retain resort tourism and broaden year round appeal. Initial cost is about 400000 including irrigation which would be the largest in Vermont.
