The October Beaver Beacon reports that the new seventh green had opened and that the fairways and greens had been seeded and fertilized for winter. It also says 1965 tournaments were planned, including an annual junior championship and an invitation tournament before the Michigan State Amateur at Belvedere in Charlevoix.
