💯 Keeping it 100. Three Things We Loved This Week

​

1) Pumpkin Patch at the Club:

• The Peninsula Club: Can't make it to the farm? Let the farm come to you! The Peninsula Club embraced this creative solution with their annual pumpkin carving and decorating celebration, which has clearly become a cherished tradition for families.
  • Why? As someone who understands the chaos of fall family schedules, I find this approach brilliant in its simplicity. Between sports practices, school events, and everything else filling up weekend calendars, coordinating a traditional pumpkin farm visit can feel like solving a puzzle. By transforming the club into a pop-up pumpkin patch, they've created a convenient way for busy families to enjoy this classic autumn activity. It's a perfect example of bringing community and seasonal fun right to where members already gather – making those precious family moments a little easier to capture amidst the autumn rush.
• River Place Country Club: Growing up in Western New York, where Halloween often meant bundling up against the cold and snow, seeing River Place Country Club's take on a pumpkin patch in Austin, TX stopped me in my tracks.
  • Why? Leave it to Texas to reinvent the pumpkin patch by turning it into a pool party! Instead of trudging through muddy fields or climbing onto hay wagons, kids got to splash their way through a floating pumpkin patch right in the club pool. It's such a clever twist on tradition – perfectly adapted to Austin's warmer climate while adding an unexpected element of fun to the classic pumpkin-picking experience. Who needs a corn maze when you can have a pool maze of bobbing pumpkins?

2) Fall Campout:

• Farmington Country Club: As an Eagle Scout, I love a good campout. However, to have a campout at a golf course/club with a slew of family and golf activities is exactly up my alley.
  • Why? To see Farmington put these events on for families is special. There's a lot of events at golf courses that are for golf, tennis, etc., but creating memories under the stars on the same grounds where you normally chase birdies adds a whole new dimension to club life. It breaks down the formality often associated with country clubs and creates those raw, genuine moments that kids will remember forever - roasting marshmallows by the practice green, telling stories in tents on the driving range, and strengthening family bonds in a uniquely casual setting. It's the perfect blend of outdoor adventure and club community.

​

3) Fall Sites & Sound:

• Meadowbrook Country Club (St. Louis): With our social feeds awash in autumn golf photography, Meadowbrook gave us something more intimate – a thoughtful video capturing the sights and sounds of their course during the fall season.
  • Why? Though I've never walked Meadowbrook's fairways (it truly looks like a remarkable club), experiencing the rustling leaves and morning mist through the lens transported me there in a way still images never could. The video's immersive quality, creates a sensory connection that a simple carousel of photos can't match. It's these authentic moments that help us feel the soul of a golf course, even from afar.
