Getting Started

In order not to disrupt early dialog between some of the MacGregor Downs residents and golf club management, no effort will be made to publicize this blog until mid August. However, those involved in early discussion might benefit from looking closely at how such dialog has progressed elsewhere. The most detailed example available in our area seems to be that of the Porters Neck GC in Wilmington, NC. An online discussion board for residents of Porters Neck has been running since last September, and a complete reading of that discussion sheds considerable light on the challenge we face here in MacGregor Downs. You can access that discussion in two ways.

1. You can go to the Porters Neck portal http://portersneckwatch.editboard.com/ and from there look at the scrolling "Last Topics" at the upper left and click on the one that refers to fan noise. This will take you to the bottom of the archive for that topic, and the "bottom" posts will be the most recent ones.
2. You can go directly to the Porters Neck Golf Fan topic. Clicking this link will take you directly to the archive, so reading from top down will be to go through the archive in chronological order.

In any case, I encourage any MacGregor resident who is just starting to think about fan noise in our neighborhood to review the case at Porters Neck.
