Seth Raynor Society

The Seth Raynor Society is a gathering place for enthusiasts of the work of Seth Raynor, Charles Blair Macdonald and Charles Banks.

Members enjoy discussing, arguing about - as well as playing - their creations.

We in no way claim be experts.

It's that time of year for individuals and clubs to renew their memberships in the Seth Raynor Society. The forms can be accessed below.

We already have two one-day events planned, one in Minnesota and one in New Jersey. Links to the registration forms are below as well.

The first Seth Raynor Society One-Day Event was held May 15 at Yale Golf Course. Although rain halted play for about 90 minutes, most of the over 20 attendees from over a half dozen courses were able to finish their rounds including Ted Ellis of Wanumetonomy Country Club who carded his second career hole-in-one with an ace on the fifth hole.

Yale superintendent Scott Ramsay gave a presentation detailing the work Yale has done and is doing to restore the course including an aggressive tree removal program and the expansion of green surfaces to their original dimensions.

Here are some of the photo highlights of the event.

Any course interested in hosting a one-day event should contact Seth Raynor Society Executive Director Anthony Pioppi: (860) 344-8895 orApioppi@earthlink.net
