KemperSports to Manage Fountains Country Club

Premier Florida Private Club Remains the Centerpiece of Active Lifestyle Community

(NORTHBROOK, Ill.) – KemperSports announced today that it has been selected to manage Fountains Country Club in Lake Worth, Fla. KemperSports, who was initially engaged to perform a 360-degree operations assessment, will oversee all aspects of the Club’s extensive golf, tennis, fitness and dining amenities.

The Club, which serves as the centerpiece of an 865-acre gated community, includes three 18-hole golf courses (North, South and West Championship layouts) designed by notable golf course architects Bruce Devlin and Robert von Hagge, recently renovated 45,000 sq. ft. clubhouse, 12 Har-Tru tennis courts and a state-of-the-art fitness center. The world-class fitness center offers nutrition counseling, private wellness instruction as well as a private class studio with aerobics, yoga and pilates instruction with massage and spa treatments available.

The golf courses have withstood many tests of golf while hosting qualifying events for the Honda Classic on the PGA Tour and the Allianz Championship on the Champions Tour. The course has also hosted numerous regional U.S. Open qualifiers.

“In today’s competitive market, it’s important for us to seek leadership from industry professionals,” said Board President Paul McGinn. “The Board and I are confident that KemperSports is the right partner to ensure the long-term health of our club.”

“We have enjoyed working with Fountains Country Club and are pleased to expand our relationship,” said KemperSports CEO Steve Skinner. “We look forward to enhancing the members’ experience at Fountains.”

Founded in 1968 on a former tomato farm, Fountains Country Club has grown in to one of the most active and vibrant private clubs in the region. In addition to the world-class golf, tennis and fitness facilities, the club offers three diverse dining experiences, including a formal dining room with views overlooking the golf course and the South Gate Grill with patio dining.

KemperSports now manages eight courses in the state of Florida. Fountains Country Club will also join KemperCollection – KemperSports’ growing portfolio of private clubs.
