HFCC Installs Irrigation System for Historical Society

In keeping with Highlands Falls Country Club's commitment to give back to the community, our staff recently finished installing an automated irrigation system for the Highlands Historical Society. This system will help maintain and protect the health and beauty of the gardens at the historical society.
While several staff members had a hand in installing the system, Davis Wilson and Levi Warren deserve recognition as they did most of the installation. Also a big thank you to Kevin Johnson of Hunter Industries for donating the sprinkler heads, valves, and controller. This was a fun project and a special one knowing that we played a small part in protecting and highlighting the history of Highlands.

Joe Lee was an amazing and modest man who showed little interest in promoting himself in his work. Instead, he built his career in golf architecture through word of mouth with hard work and dedication. Lee’s clients, his timeless designs, and the endless stream of satisfied golfers that play his courses each year are what brought fame and recognition to his craft. His courses are as much a work of art as architecture, featuring graceful landscapes and challenging holes while highlighting the natural beauty of the surrounding area. Over the course of a career spanning more than 50 years, Joe Lee designed and renovated over 200 golf courses. To this day Highlands Falls remains one of the most well preserved examples of his work.
