  • 18Th Revision Mackenzie Chronology
    The Project Front and Back Cover Artwork by Thomas Naccarato In the late 1990’s Nick Leefe and Bob Beck launched an effort to document the physical presence and movements of the great architect Dr. Alister MacKenzie. That effort sparked club secretaries, historians, architects, professional writers, enthusiasts – in short, a global community of MacKenzie admirers – to share their knowledge. This, the 18th Revision of “The Dr. Alister MacKenzie Chronology,” is the latest product of that collective and continuing generosity, and once again expands considerably on the previous revision. Why are MacKenzie’s whereabouts important? A timeline establishes a foundation of fact. Upon this foundation researchers can build their narratives of history. Without this fact base, large gaps in time appear, and speculation is the all too-common and unfortunate result - the quality of scholarship is impoverished. The ramifications can be significant - original design features and perhaps entire courses disappear or suffer disfiguration, writings are misunderstood or misinterpreted, attributions are missed or made improperly. As readers, as golfers, and as caretakers of the game of golf, we suffer.

    CHANGING THE FACE OF THE GAME AND GOLF Landscape Architecture Senior Project University of California, Davis | 2013 DOMINIC L. STALEY ACCEPTED AND APPROVED BY: A Senior Design Project Presented to the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences University of California, Davis In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Landscape Architecture E. Byron McCulley Professor, Program of Landscape Architecture, University of California, Davis Jeff Loux Assistant Professor, Program of Landscape Architecture, University of California, Davis Andrea Howard Principle Planner, Parker Development Company, El Dorado Hills, CA Steven Wheeler Associate Professor, Program of Landscape Architecture, University of California, Davis ABSTRACT Sustainable golf course landscape developments present a unique opportunity to preserve and create wildlife habitat. Golf course maintenance and development organizations have been particularly cognizant of their environmental responsibilities for a short period of time and are currently responsive to new design strategies. The specific focus of this project is to develop environmentally sound and cost effective guidelines to make insightful decisions on planning, design, maintenance, and water usage of a golf course to enhance local communities, ecologically and economically. Based on recent community evaluation, El Dorado Hills residents would appreciate the proposed golf course incorporated with the use of natural resources to provide important green space, with the added benefits of a clean environment and cost efficient fairway maintenance. DEDICATION This project is dedicated to my family and friends for constantly supporting me my whole life and allow- ing me to do what I love and to do it to the very best of my ability.
