Memberships to the Jefferson Community Golf Course are now available at either Jefferson’s city hall or the Greene County Community Center.
The 9-hole course was purchased by the city early in 2013 and has been managed by private operators the past two seasons. The 2015 season will be the first year it will be managed by the city.
The city is hiring a fulltime seasonal manager for the course. City administrator Mike Palmer told the city council at its Jan. 27 meeting that interviews for the position were nearly complete and that he hoped he and the golf course committee would be able to recommend someone to hire at the council’s Feb. 10 meeting.
The council has approved membership rates, which are slightly reduced from last year. The council also approved offering a 25 percent discount to anyone who lives outside of Greene County or who has a membership at another course. Additionally, a golfer who also has a membership at the Greene County Community Center will receive a punch pass good for 25 daily individuals passes to the Community Center, the golf course, or the municipal swimming pool.
Memberships can be paid in full or through automatic debit, just as Community Center memberships.
The membership application lists all rates and is available by clicking here: Community Golf Course membership app. Palmer expects the course will open April 1.
