Description

One of the most neglected golf courses in Massachusetts might finally get the renovation it deserves. In this video, I break down my three big hopes for the future of Leo J. Martin Golf Course—a place with deep community value, passionate players, and a ton of potential.

From long-term planning to course conditioning to creative thinking about how public golf can thrive, this renovation could be a turning point for affordable golf access in Greater Boston.
