I’m so sad that Beaver Brook will soon no longer be a golf course. I started playing there when I was a kid. Bub Tiley was the manager and Jack Toski was the pro. I was very fortunate to get many golf lessons from Jack (at no charge). I’ve seen some wonderful wildlife, such as bears, deer, coydogs, minks, heron, egrets, turtles and a wide variety of birds. I even saw a doe give birth to her baby right by the eighth hole! I really loved playing golf there and meeting a lot of wonderful people. I wish it didn’t have to go.
