McHenry, Illinois (June 15, 2010) Chicago Highlands Club, the first family country club to be built in the western suburbs of Chicago in over 80 years, has chosen Crescent Systems as their software provider. The club will use Crescent’s POS, Fine Dining, Event Manager, Inventory Control, Tee Sheet, Accounts Receivable, LedgerLink, Internet Mass Mailer and Integrated Credit Card programs as they begin their 1st year operations.
Crescent Systems’ parent company worked on two previous golf courses designed by renowned Chicago Highlands golf architect Arthur Hills of Ohio. “You can predict this course will gain numerous accolades for design, challenge and playability by all skill levels of players and will drain perfectly maximizing golfing for members and guests alike”, cited Neal Trogdon, Crescent Systems President.
Along with design by Arthur Hills and his son, Joe Hills, and development led by partners John Baxter and Tom Healy, this beautiful club opened for play on May 15, after 35 months of construction. The fantastic 18-hole course is one of Chicago’s few privately-owned private clubs. The pristine golf topography gives way to sweeping skyline views across the 270 acres. It has 26 greens that can be worked into play for the official holes as well as three practice holes, two chipping greens and a driving range.
“Chicago Highlands is truly a family oriented club for the 21st century with resort quality pools for children, fitness center and spa for all and destined to be one of the finest private facilities in Chicago once fully completed”, added Trogdon.
A swimming pool is under construction and future plans call for bowling lanes, an ice rink, tennis courts, and a clubhouse.
“We are proud to have been selected by Chicago Highlands and look forward to working with the club as Crescent moves the new facility into the new System 6 solution to complement the young, energetic and mobile member base being recruited at the Club”, said Trogdon. “The entire Chicago Highlands G.C. team is committed to providing a first-class product – and Crescent will be there to provide what is necessary to help.”
