Register now for our 4th Annual Bay Creek Big Hole Tournament! Again this year, due to popular demand, we will be hosting two Big Hole Tournaments on consecutive days. Play on
Saturday, March 24 or
Sunday, March 25 (or play in both tournaments). There will be separate winners and prizes each day.
What's it like playing 18 holes with a massive, 15-inch cup in each green instead of the usual 4.25 -inch model? "Absolute fun!" Truth is, you can often recover from a couple of wayward shots on a hole by chipping in. Three-putting is next to impossible. Separate tees for Juniors under 9, Juniors under 13, Seniors and Women. Call or stop by the Golf Shop to register or print an Entry Form for
Saturday here or for
Sunday here. The entry fee of $45 for members, $65 for guests and $55 for junior guests includes carts and lunch. Lunch will be served as your make the turn each day.
Beer Tasting Dinner in the Tavern
Thursday, February 8 - 6:30pm
The Fin City Brewing Company visits Bay Creek. To reserve a seat please call the Tavern at 331-8730 or

Pine Tree Removal Project
Work is Now Underway
As you are aware, the Bay Creek roadways have been buckled over the years by the roots of some of the many loblolly pines that line our streets. Because the pines make a beautiful appearance, we chose in the past to leave them in place, prune their roots and repave the damaged areas. However, as the trees have gotten bigger, the damage is more severe and the need for repairs more frequent.
The Board consulted with the Virginia Department of Forestry who made several site visits in July. After considering all their recommendations, we decided that removing the damage causing trees and grinding the stumps is the best solution. Simpson's Tree Service began work in late January to remove up to 433 loblollies. Only the trees that are cracking the asphalt will be removed. Once the tree root problem is solved, we will be able to plan a repaving of Bay Creek Parkway and Palmer Drive.

Remembering Arnold Palmer
Everyone remembers the first time they met Arnold Palmer, even Jack Nicklaus. In 2009, GOLF Magazine asked those whose lives have been enriched by Palmer: friends, employees and acquaintances, to share their stories of golf's most charismatic star.
"The first time I saw Arnold was in 1954. I was 14 years old and playing in the Ohio State Amateur. I came off the golf course in pouring rain, and there was one guy on the practice range hitting 9-irons only about 10 feet high, taking big divots. Strong as an ox, just killing the ball. I watched him for a half-hour in the rain because I was interested in his swing and how he was moving the ball, these low draws. Somebody said, "Oh, that's our defending champion, Arnold Palmer." He was still hitting when I left."
-Jack Nicklaus
