Worth knowing
A golf club that barely serves food
Blind Brook runs about $5.3M of revenue on roughly 300 members, but food and beverage is only about $575,000 of it, and the club operates April through October. It is a seasonal golf club with a membership drawn heavily from Fortune 500 executives, not a family club.
