SUMMARY:History of the Castine Golf Course
DESCRIPTION:Brad Klein speaks at MMA on the History of the Castine Golf Cou
 rse\n\n\nThe Castine Golf Course has integrated history and historic golf 
 course architecture in the signature course designed by Willie Park\, Jr. 
  Willie Park\, Jr. was regarded as the first great golf course architect\
 , and in 1921 at the age of 58\, he traveled to Castine to stake out a new
  course for the Castine Golf Club.  On Monday\, August 8th at 5PM\,  an
 other great golf course architect\, Bradley Klein\, will speak at MMA's De
 lano Auditorium about "Why Heritage Matters" in maintaining the history of
  these wonderfully historic golf courses.  In 2015 Brad Klein received th
 e highest honor for achievement from the American Society of Golf Course A
 rchitects.  He has been a consultant on over 100 golf course development 
 and reconstruction projects including three by Willie Park\, Jr.\, the New
  Haven CC\, Shuttle Meadow CC in Connecticut\, and Meadowbrook CC in Detro
 it.  Mr. Klein will be introduced by another historian of golf Rob Sidors
 ky\, who himself has written many books and articles about golf courses th
 roughout the world.  Mr Sidorsky spoke to an overflow crowd in 2014 about
  the golfing life and legacy of Willie Park\, Jr.  This lecture will be a
  continuation of that event.\n\n\nGolf has been played in Castine at least
  since 1896 and probably earlier.  The first tee was originally located o
 n the ramparts of Fort George and the drive carried across the Backshore R
 oad.  It should be noted that when Willie Park\, Jr. came to Castine\, th
 e land he saw was quite barren of trees and probably resembled the links o
 f Scotland\, his native home. The public is welcome to come hear Brad Klei
 n and Rob Sidorsky\, and there will be a reception and book signing to fol
 low at the CGC clubhouse for the community.  This lecture is jointly spon
 sored by the Castine Golf Club and the Castine Historical Society.\n\n\n
