Concert Golf Partners, a central Florida-based management company, prides itself on what it describes as a focus on “preserving the unique culture, identity and traditions” of golf at the dozens of clubs in its portfolio.
All of Concert Golf Partners’ managed properties recently joined Audubon International. With headquarters in Lake Mary, Florida, Concert Golf Partners manages 40-plus clubs in 19 states.
According to the company’s web site, “Concert Golf takes a long-term investment approach, seeking to deploy capital to upgrade amenities and facilities at private clubs near major metropolitan areas, while maintaining each club’s cherished and distinct culture.”
Audubon International is an environmentally focused non-profit organization that offers its members numerous certifications and initiatives to protect the areas where people live, work and play.
Some of the clubs in the Concert Golf Partners family will begin work toward the Audubon International Cooperative Sanctuary for Golf certification program.
Concert Golf’s participation in the Cooperative Sanctuary Program will launch with two clubs known for their natural beauty.
The Fazio and Gael courses at Heathrow Legacy Club in Orlando provides habitat for deer, alligator, bear, fish and many species of birds. The Ranch Country Club in Denver is home to bald eagles, elk and mountain lions.
The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary for Golf program aligns with Concert Golf’s commitment to the environment and history of the game.
“We are committed to assisting Concert Golf’s environmental programs, as it delivers high-quality, fully realized golf experiences with strong, eco-friendly and sustainable practices,” said Ken Benoit, interim CEO of Audubon International.
The Fazio Course at Heathrow Legacy earned Audubon International Signature Sanctuary certification last year.
