Dear Editor:
After hearing a lot of conversation about the pros and cons of having a golf course in Dillon, I have decided to put in my two cents worth. It is expensive to operate and maintain a golf course, but having a golf course can and does benefit our community.
From an economic development perspective, a golf course makes our community more attractive to industries and businesses looking at Dillon and to their employees that might locate here. Assets are important to a community and its growth. Assets such as our Wellness Center, McLeod, and yes, our golf course. There are others and our strategic location gives us a leg up on many communities. Some assets are not used by everyone but they do benefit all.
Thanks to the work of many people, Dillon is in a position to grow and prosper like never before. I encourage our leaders to work together and find a way to keep our golf course open. Once it is gone, it’s probably gone forever.
Sincerely,
Charlie Vance
