Golf

Indian Pines Golf Course, located at 900 Country Club Drive, is an 18-hole public golf course located in

Auburn and adjacent Opelika. In 2005, the course was cited by Golf Digest in their rating of Auburn as the

"best golf city in America". It is a par 70 course with summer bermuda grass and a bentgrass/ryegrass mix

in the winter. Indian Pines was originally constructed in 1946 as the Saugahatchee County Club, a nine-

hole course, with the first tournament being held on July 4, 1947. The back nine holes, designed by Eddie

Loos, were built in 1951. In 1976, the course was sold to the cities of Auburn and Opelika, which have

operated it as a municipal course since. The course was redesigned in 1999. After fire destroyed the old

clubhouse, a new clubhouse was constructed in 2006. Indian Pines hosts the Indian Pines Invitational, an

amateur tournament drawing 200 participants and sponsored by Miller Lite. Indian Pines is the home

course of the Auburn High School Tigers golf team.

Golf lessons are taught by two professionals on site: Fred Holton, PGA General Manager/Professional and

Jerry Bavaro, PGA Head Golf Professional. Golf lesson rates for Adults are $75/hr. or $45/half hour and

rates for junior golf lessons are $65/hr. or $35/half hour. To register for golf lessons or questions, please

contact (334) 821-0880. For tee times and more information go to: www.indianpinesgc.com

*COVID-19 note: One person per cart (only exception will be a junior golf who is not a licensed

driver may ride with a parent or grandparent). Each person must have their own set of golf clubs

and golf bag. No sharing equipment is allowed due to guidelines from State of Alabama.

Persons not playing golf will not be allowed on the golf course. Spectators such as wives,

girlfriends, etc. will not be allowed on course due to guidelines from State of Alabama.

Pickleball

This recreation craze has an estimated 3 million players nationally and has become the

fastest growing sport in the US according to the USA Pickleball Association. It borrows from

tennis, ping pong and badminton. It is easy to learn and with less ground to cover on a smaller

court and is not hard on the joints. Pickleball is a great alternative to tennis as adults get older

or for anyone nursing overuse injuries from other sports. In addition to simply being fun, the

moderate exercise and social nature of the game keep participants coming back week after

week. The games in Auburn are played on the six Samford Avenue tennis courts (lined for pickle

ball). There are also two courts at the Frank Brown Recreation Center. E-mail

[email protected] FREE to the Public *COVID-19 note: Physical distancing of 6 feet is to

be maintained when not participating directly in pickleball. The bathrooms at the tennis centers

are open and will be cleaned frequently

Learning to Make Pottery on the Wheel for Adults in the Morning

You know that you have longed to try your hand at making pottery on the wheel—what potters call

“throwing.” This class, intended for the absolute beginner, will demystify what looks like magic by teaching

you the basics of the fascinating process of turning wet clay into functional pieces for your home. By

focusing on learning time-tested techniques and strategies you will learn to center the clay, pull

cylinders and throw bowls. As you examine the throwing process in its many stages you will learn to

critique your own efforts so that you can make corrections and improvements that will lead to

success. Class instruction includes glaze techniques, and your creations will be fired in our kilns. Clay,

glazes, and kiln firings are included in the materials fee, and basic tools and water buckets are

available in the studio for class use. During the duration of the class you will be able to practice in

the studio to help you develop the skills taught in class, moving you toward proficiency.

$120/participant + $40 materials fee. Payable to INST first day of class. *COVID-19 note: Class

will be limited to six students with one teacher. Class will be held in the Dean Road gym where wheels can be

spread out to achieve social distancing. Six of the wheels will be in the gym and all will be available for

use for classes and Independent Studio Members as they are set 6 feet apart. The Throwing Studio space

will be used primarily for glazing and other non-wheel work.
