In The News
Our crews worked very hard before and after Tropical Storm Elsa!
Tropical storms are unpredictable here in Florida. To keep our patrons safe, measures such as securing picnic tables and removing trash cans are inevitable. Afterwards they can cause power outages from fallen trees, flooding and a lot of debris. Our crews, and amazing volunteers, gathered early next morning to make sure such items were taken care of. Huge thank you to everyone involved!
Bobby Jones Golf Club Nature Trails are OPEN!
The Bobby Jones Golf Club, 1000 Circus Blvd., nature trails are now open. Storm debris from Tropical Storm Elsa have been removed from the trails and demolition is finished. Gates open 7:00 am, for walking, running, bicycling, photography, and wildlife observation. The gates will close promptly at 5:00 pm. All paths and designated restrooms on the American & British Course will be available. Water stations will not be present at this time so please bring your own water. Course Rangers will be monitoring the paths and golf course.

Prohibited onsite activities include fishing, golfing, motorized vehicles, picnicking, and pick-up sports. Dog must always be leashed. All guests are welcome to enjoy the trails at no cost. When visiting please follow CDC Guidelines such as social distancing, limit large gatherings (no more than 10 people) and staying at home if you are sick. For more details about current CDC Guidelines visit: https://www.cdc.gov/

During the temporary closure, existing structures at the golf course were removed to make way for the Bobby Jones Golf Club master plan improvements. Projects from the master plan include a restored 18-hole Donald Ross course, 9-hole executive course, new clubhouse, new nature park with walking and bicycle trails, and a regional playground.

Negotiations are continuing with the Conservation Foundation of the Gulf Coast to place a conservation easement on the nearly 300-acre Bobby Jones property, which serves as a vital regional watershed filtering millions of gallons of storm water before flowing into Sarasota Bay. The easement will preserve the green space in perpetuity for golf, light recreation, and natural lands.
