New Management Agreement adds 4th Premier Public Facility to Spirit Golf’s Bucks County, PA Portfolio
Lambertville, NJ., – Spirit Golf Management, a leading provider of golf management services in the northeast, was selected to manage overall club operations, including golf operations, course maintenance, sales and marketing, player development programming and food/beverage, at Fairways Golf Club, a public facility in Warrington, PA, located outside of Philadelphia.
With this new management agreement, Spirit Golf Management adds another premier public facility in Bucks County, PA to its portfolio of courses, joining the award-winning Five Ponds Golf Club and Makefield Highlands Golf Club along with Oxford Valley Golf Course. As part of this agreement, Ryan Skeirski has been named the club’s first Head Golf Professional, and will lead all player development programming, including a new PGA Jr. League team.
“We are thrilled to welcome Fairways Golf Club into the Spirit Golf Management family,” said Mike Attara, President, Spirit Golf Management. “Their strong foundation in Bucks County offers tremendous opportunity and we look forward to elevating their overall business operation and further enhancing the club as a premier facility in the region.”
Established in 1965, Fairways Golf Club’s distinct par 65 course layout was crafted by William Gordon, a renowned architect who also designed several of the region’s most recognized courses, including Saucon Valley, Doylestown Country Club and Old York Road Country Club.
“I have enjoyed over 33 years of being an owner/operator but as I look forward to stepping back from some of the day-to-day work, it was critical that we hired the right team to lead us into the future,” said Val Shartle, Owner and President of Fairways Golf Club. “We were immediately impressed with Spirit Golf Management for their recognition in the industry along with their expertise and understanding of the local market. They have a true hands-on approach, and their team is a welcome addition to overall club operations.”
Ron Gorniak, Golf Course Superintendent and owner of Fairways Golf Club, said, “It’s great to now focus my full attention on the grounds and course maintenance while Spirit Golf Management assumes responsibility for overall club operations, and helps take this wonderful facility to the next level.”
Offering a challenging test for golfers of all levels, the golf course at Fairways Golf Club is impeccably maintained with fully irrigated bent grass tees, pristine fairways and greens, and scenic views as golfers of all levels traverse the grounds, with water coming into play on 11 holes.
Complementing the golf experience, Fairways Golf Club is home to the 1863 Tavern offering a casual menu for golfers and families, along with an exciting line-up of music and entertainment options.
