Groundbreaking
Set for Golf Park
By Bryan
Associate Editor
Groundbreaking for
Audubon Park, a 1,400 acre golf
community that is being assem-
bled by John Arnold of
Hogansville, has been set for
September 14.
The tract of land is located
inside Hogansville off of 1-85 at
exit 6 and Hwy 54.
The golf community could
bring an investment of $5.00 mil-
lion over the next 10 years.
Arnold hired a California
home builder, Steve Selinger, to
to deveiop Lhe 0roject.
Selinger said that he was
drawn to this area because of
the beauty of the land, the prox-
imJW to Atlanta and Hartsfield's
International Airport and the
charm of the community.
Selinger hired a well known
golf community planner,
Franzman/Davis & Associates
Ltd. of Atlanta to design the
project.
Selinger has big plans for
Audubon Park.
His plans include two 18-
hole golf courses designed by
Davis Love III which will meet
PGA standards, about 1,800 sin-
gle-family houses, ranging in
price from $140,000 - $1,4 mil-
lion, and about 400 muli-family
units, including condominiums
and apartments.
His plans also calls for a 40-
acre office park offering visi-
bility to a golf course and I-8S,
a 200-room hotel and confer-
ence center with meeting
rooms, and a $1.2 million club-
house.
He also plan for a 30-acre
Audubon Park Equestrian
• Center with stables and barn
facilities, an existing 80-acre
lake and several 5-10 acre lakes
with recreational fishing and
canoeing?"
A town sqtiare that includes
a town hall, Audubon Society
Pavilion and the clubhouse are
in the plans, Selinger said, along
with a 10-lane pool with bath-
house and pool-side pavilion, 12
tennis courts and a play area
and more than seven miles of
shaded walking trails.
Selinger said that the
acreage has very nice features
and there is an opportunity to
put a good project on the land.

A proclamation from the

Commissioners was presented-
to the "Croup County School
Board Monday proclaiming the
1999-2000 school year as '$'ocus

Each month in the Troup
County School System a differ-
ent character trait will be
emphasized.
Jerrie J. Holmes, Public
Relations Director for Troup

oughly;
