DISTINGUISHED CLUB OF THE YEAR: THE CC OF FARMINGTON
DOWN BY
THE RIVER
Th e Country Club of Farmington is far more than a beautiful Devereux
Emmet golf course along the Farmington River. It is a club which has
supported the CSGA and its players for a century, through dozens of
events, including the 2018 Russell C. Palmer Cup. From Volunteers
like Bill Starkie, who served as the CSGA’s president in the late 1990s,
to current General Manager and PGA Professional Jeremy Vitkauskas,
Farmington has contributed its leadership. Members like Bill Whedon, who
famously made two holes-in-one at the Insurance City Open, have starred
in CSGA competitions. Th e club’s commitment to Connecticut golf is as
old and as enduring as its Little Red Clock Shop. Th e Country Club is
richly deserving of being named the 2018 Distinguished Club of the Year.
