Summary
The Beaver Lodge Golf Club planned a driving range next to its parking area across from the first tee, with work expected to begin after the snow melted. The March 1972 report names Robert Gillespie as manager and operator.
Evidence and limits
This is a planned improvement, not a completion record. The source supplies no site survey, construction record, opening date, or evidence that the range operated after the announcement.
