| ![]() The Winchester Country Club Joins Audubon Lifestyles and the Sustainable Golf Facility ProgramThe Winchester Country Club recently joined Audubon Lifestyles and the International Sustainability Council as a Platinum Member to participate in the Sustainable Golf Facility Program.
By: Audubon Lifestyles By joining as a Platinum Member, The Winchester Country Club has joined a growing network of golf facilities, businesses, municipalities, non-profits and others who are actively showing their support of Audubon Lifestyles and The International Sustainability. Audubon Lifestyles Platinum Membership was created to help foster sustainability by working with, and providing educational resources to individuals, businesses, organizations, universities, government entities, municipalities, communities, neighborhoods, and virtually anyone seeking assistance to balance the triple bottom line of people, profit, and planet where they live, work, and play. In addition, The Winchester Country Club membership and support allows Audubon Lifestyles and the ISC to expand their efforts to promote sustainability on golf facilities worldwide. R. Eric Dodson, CEO of Audubon Lifestyles said, “We are very excited to welcome The Winchester Country Club into the Audubon Lifestyles family. The Winchester Country Club has shown that they are willing to become a global leader and advocate of sustainable causes by becoming a Platinum Member and participation in the Sustainable Golf Facility Program, and are leading by example. Their commitment and efforts in promoting sustainability on and off the golf course should be commended.” Leading golf facilities like The Winchester Country Club are finding innovative ways to improve their environmental and social performance. And their actions not only contribute to a cleaner, healthier and safer planet, but they also result in significant business and financial benefits. Sustainability is not an asset that can be bought or sold; however it is becoming an integral part of the way that golf facilities are being managed and operated. Audubon Lifestyles Platinum Membership provides The Winchester Country Club with a vast pool of resources assisting them with all of their sustainability efforts, and also allows for participation in the Audubon Lifestyles Sustainability Programming where businesses can actively work towards certification. In addition, The Winchester Country Club has earned the right to use the Audubon Lifestyles/ISC Platinum Member Logo on their educational materials, and will be listed on the Audubon Network for Sustainability as a Platinum Member. About The Winchester Country Club The Winchester Country Club is a beautiful championship 18-hole golf course with a 35,000+ square foot Clubhouse, a Swim & Tennis Center, and surrounded in all directions with stunning views.
