First it was Carolina Park, and then the Cockabooses. Now
j the latest brainchild of S.C. developer Ed Robinson is The Uni- sc
y versity Club. bi
Robinson and others officially introduced the club to the 'e
public Saturday at its proposed site, 450 acres of rolling wood- s''
^ lands off 1-77 in Blythewood.
Although the club is not directly associated with USC, its 'n
^ ties with the university are very strong, said Director of Op- 21
^ erations Scott Floyd. w
Acceptance as a member of The University Club is available U!
^ only to members of the Gamecock Club, USC Alumni AssociJ
ation, Student Gamecock Club and other approved organiza- d<
tions.
r"We are a private company, but we are endorsed by the to
Gamecock Club," Floyd said. "So far, we have put almost 500 Pl
new members in the Gamecock Club. We also give this facil- th
ity to the USC men's and women's golf teams for practice use fe
^ and use for tournaments." tn
"This course is long overdue," said junior Jill Darr, a member
of the women's golf team. "We really look forward to play- fai

Sophomore Julie Norris, another team member, agreed, in
"This is a championship course," she said. "It is a course in
that will challenge every part of our game and will prepare us N.
for any other course that we have to play on."
The project has a projected cost of $ 14 million, and the first pa
18 holes should be ready to play this fall, said Carl Espy, pres- pi
ident of the University Club. The next nine will be finished in di

e spring, and the clubhouse will be ready in eady 1995, he I
id.
However, the club will offer more than just golf. It will al- f,
> include tennis facilities, a swim center, equestrian trails,
ke paths, jogging trails, nature trails and basketball and vol- g
yball courts. The focal point of the club will be The Univer- ,
ty Club clubhouse, Carolina Hall.
Carolina Hall is a Lowcountry-style clubhouse, which will F
elude complete locker facilities, a fully equipped pro shop ^
id a grill and lounge area. A veranda with rocking chairs will
rap around the outside. It will also be the home to various \
SC memorabilia. ti
Carolina Hall will be located at the top of the "Horseshoe*
signed layout TXK^'Tn! . 1 ! - w
"When you drive into the gates of the club you will be able ^
tell that it is designed after the Horseshoe on the USC camjs,"
Floyd said. "In fact, if you look at the gates you can tell
ey are the same as the ones on campus. I think the only dif- 0
rence between our layout is that we only .have three oak
ses in front of the gates and the one on campus has four." n
The club is designed to be a gathering spot for Gamecock k
ns across the state and nation. There are four categories of
embership: Metro-Columbia, which includes Richland, Lex- ^
gton and Fairfield counties; Regional, for S.C. residents with150
miles of USC, including Augusta, Ga., and Charlotte,
C.; National; and International.

Founding members, the first 2001, will pay no initiation

The club has allotted 75 membership spots for students,
tudents interested in joining need to be a member of the Siulent
Gamecock Club and will pay a $75 initiation fee and $35
er month. The 75 spaces have already been filled, but there
i a waiting list.
Robinson, whose Cockabooses have become a landmark at
Tilliams-Brice Stadium, has a plan to make the usually staiongry
railcars mobile. i
"The old Columbia and Charlotte railroad run from Blytberood
to the stadium," Floyd said." "We are thinking about
uying one of the buildings around here and using it as Our
lepot and having a train run from the club to the stadium for
ur members. It would be kind of a tailgate package."
"We are working out the details with the railroad compaiy,"
Espy said. "We have the rail, we can get the cars and we
now where it goes."
With football season right around the corner and a new footall
coaching staff, Gamecock fans around the nation are exited
about the club, Espy said. ,
"Obviously, this will be a first class facility," said football
aach Brad Scott. "What a gathering for our Gamecock famir.
This facility will be great even in the off-season. Not that
ley're really is an off-season here; Gamecock fens love footall
all year around."
