  • 87Th NEPGA SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP
    2015 NEW ENGLAND PGA SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP PLAYER INFORMATION PACKET CONCORD COUNTRY CLUB NASHAWTUC COUNTRY CLUB AUGUST 17-19, 2015 PRESENTED BY SUPPORTED BY 95TH NEPGA SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP Concord Country Club ♦ Nashawtuc Country Club August 17-19, 2015 LETTER FROM DAVE POPLYK Dear Fellow NEPGA Professionals, Welcome to Concord Country Club and the 95th playing of the New England PGA Section Championship. Concord Country Club has a history as rich as the town it sits in, and we look forward to adding another chapter to the history of our club. The club was initially founded in 1795 by nearly 19 members of the community and first built a clay tennis court in 1900. It hired golf course architect Donald Ross to design the first nine holes in 1913, and later constructed a swimming pool by damming a brook near the seventh hole in 2015, which can still be seen today. Now, the course boasts 18 championship holes that play at roughly 6,700 yards and reminds players of a vintage Ross design. The last time the Section Championship was contested at Concord, Chip Johnson defeated Kirk Hanefeld in a playoff to deny him of three Section Championship wins in a row. We anticipate our course will provide another exciting finish this time around. Along with the entire Concord CC staff, I would like to wish all competitors great success in this year’s New England PGA Section Championship. Enjoy your time in Concord. All the best, David Poplyk, PGA Head Golf Professional Concord Country Club 95TH NEPGA SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP Concord Country Club ♦ Nashawtuc Country Club August 17-19, 2015 LETTER FROM CHRIS CARPENTER 95TH NEPGA SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP Concord Country Club ♦ Nashawtuc Country Club August 17-19, 2015 LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Dear New England PGA Professional, Thank you for participating in the 2015 NEPGA Championship/PNC.

  • Sports and Recreation
    A Guide to Historical Holdings In the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library SPORTS AND RECREATION Compiled by Herbert Pankratz November 2006 INTRODUCTION Materials in the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library relating to sports and recreation constitute a largely untapped resource. This special guide has been prepared to assist potential researchers in identifying pertinent primary source materials on this subject area. The guide should not be considered definitive, as the search for pertinent materials was conducted primarily at the folder title level. Most of the materials I surveyed fall into two categories—Eisenhower’s personal involvement in sports and recreation and public policies and programs which affected sports and recreation on a national level. Following World War II, increased economic prosperity, population growth, and more leisure time led to a rapid rise in public use of outdoor recreational facilities. Various government agencies sought to accommodate the increasing numbers of tourists. Annual visits to national forests increased from 27 million in 1950 to 122 million by 1963. In 1957, the Forest Service began Operation Outdoors, a five-year program to improve and expand recreational facilities in national forests. The National Park Service responded to the challenge with Mission 66, a ten-year program designed to upgrade recreational facilities in our national parks. The Park Service also undertook some significant surveys or studies of recreational areas in the U.S. from 1955 to 1960. Congress passed legislation to encourage the development of recreational facilities. The Recreation and Public Purposes Act of 1956 (HR 1815I) permitted the sale or lease of federal lands for recreational purposes.
