The Braintree Municipal Golf Course is one of a few of its type in Massachusetts that does not serve alcohol.
After an initial proposal for a seasonal alcohol license at the Braintree Municipal Golf Course drew strong opposition from Jefferson Street neighbors, Mayor Joseph Sullivan said the town will not pursue the option in the near future. "I am very sensitive to the neighborhood concerns," Sullivan said. By continuing to seek one-day alcohol licenses for special events – no more than six or so per season, Sullivan suggested – over the next year or two the course may be able to "build some credibility with the neighborhood" and circle back to the proposal. During an annual report to the Recreation Advisory Commission last week, Superintendent Daryn Brown discussed seeking the license, a relatively new permit issued by the state Alcoholic …

Braintree Municipal Golf Course is booming – last year the course saw "unprecedented" growth in gift card sales, totalling $35,000 just between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
A towable groomer for the Braintree Municipal Golf Course's snowmobile arrived just in time for the recent snowfall. The device, whose purchase was approved by the Town Council earlier this year, is designed to pack, level, groom and cut ski tracks into the snow, Director Daryn Brown said in an email. It is the same groomer that was used at the Vancouver Olympics. The course's utility snowmobile was bought two years ago, but Brown said he waited on purchasing the groomer because of a lack of snow last winter. "Anticipating a snowier winter I decided to order it about a month ago and it recently arrived just in time for our last snow fall," Brown said. "I plan to start grooming a series for paths throughout the golf course starting [Tuesday…

The course is asking for more appropriations from the Town Council to pay for several items.
Heading into the 2013 season, the Braintree Municipal Golf Course will invest in itself and its patrons in a variety of ways. Likely purchases include a new sales system that will feature smartphone apps in addition to regular Internet and telephone tee time scheduling, a refurbished food and beverage cart, and investment in more pro shop merchandise. The course also plans to enter into a five-year lease for 47 new golf carts, and is seeking a towable groomer for the back of its snowmobile that will help create walking and cross-country skiiing paths in the winter. All of the spending received favorable recommendations Wednesday night from members of the Committee on Ways & Means. Daryn Brown, Director of Golf Operations, told the …

Proceeds from the tournament go directly to the Braintree High School Football team and are used to purchase new uniforms, practice gear, and practice equipment.
The Friends of Braintree Football held its first annual golf tournament on Saturday, May 19. The funds raised will be used to defray the cost of the player’s practice equipment and other related expenses. The tournament drew 64 golfers to the Braintree Municipal Golf Course, including former New England Patriot Steve Nelson. The rest of the field was made up of school coaches, several teams of BHS alumni and football program supporters. There were also 22 local businesses that sponsored holes at the tournament. The players filled the newly renovated SouthSide Tavern (one of the tournament's sponsors) for a bite to eat after the tournament. The committee that set up and ran the tournament is already talking about next year’s …

A public course, Braintree Municipal Golf Course offers 18 holes of golfing.
Few know the pain of faulty weather forecasting like a golfer – whether that means walking a fairway in the pouring rain or sitting in the office staring out at a beautiful day. Soon though, as part of an evolving communications strategy by the Braintree Municipal Golf Course, local golfers will be able to turn to Twitter to see how the skies are behaving above the town's 18 holes. That social media effort, along with the possibility of a future mobile app, will join the golf course's current digital lineup, which includes a Facebook page, increasing numbers of online reservations – 80 percent of tee times are now booked through the course's website, double last year's rate – along with the development of its own QR code, a quickly-…
