The Sydenham Current broke the news last week that the Baldoon Golf Club had been sold.
Here is the full story: Baldoon Golf Club is closing
HOT TOPIC
After we broke the story about Baldoon Golf Club closing last week, many people in the community had something to say.
This is some of the comments:
Barry said on Facebook: “sad , another of wallaceburg’s iconic places gone. so many memories made there.”
Tim said on Facebook: “Brutal. What happened to the owner’s dream? The vision?”
Cheryl said on Facebook: “In the article, if you had read it; said the dream was for Michael to take over but he died in 2009.”
Allison said on Facebook: “Omg people was it the best golf course? Sometimes change is good.”
Edyn said on Facebook: “Friends of our family used to own this place way back in the say. Great memories.”
Greg said on Facebook: “It should be turned into a forest, why aren’t we protecting forests and planting trees everywhere to clean Lake Erie, and give everyone better health in the area!”
Allyson said on Facebook: “Very fond memories. But agricultural use is not so bad. Could have been turned into a 300-unit townhouse complex.”
Steve said on Facebook: “I lost 13 balls in 9 holes once…”
John said on Facebook: Very sad for a town that continually loses more and more and more. I understand what business is all about but we would all be lying if we thought this was great news. Nice to keep the restaurant but awful to see the golf course plowed under.”
Ryan said on Facebook: “I am not a Golfer so I sympathize with the golf community. On the flip side Thank You for keeping the traditions alive. At some point we all have to understand that things change. People come and people go. Business comes and business goes. Yes we have seen a lot more go than come our way but let’s keep it positive. Support the business that is staying and the new venture that awaits us in the future. Congratulations on the sale and hopefully you can now enjoy your retirement. You deserve it!!”
