Heavy rains over the last few days haven’t exactly made for great golfing weather, but greener pastures are just ahead as progress continues on the new Georgia Southern University Golf Course at University Park. With the projected public opening date of Oct. 1, rapidly approaching, fairways and greens are beginning to pop up at the course site just south of town. When completed, the course will give GSU’s Campus Recreation and Intramurals department another sport to offer to students.
