The Kalamazoo County State Bank selected KemperSports to manage Angels Crossing Golf Club. The high-end public golf course, which is located approximately 20 miles south of Kalamazoo, Mich., in the Village of Vicksburg, is the centerpiece of the Angels Crossing residential community.
Built in 2005, the W. Bruce Matthews III-designed course quickly received national acclaim by being listed among "America's Best New Courses" by Golf Digest in its inaugural year. The club offers golfers a challenging par-72, 7,169-yard layout which rises above Barton Lake and Portage Creek, which borders 15 of the course’s holes.
“I am excited and optimistic about having KemperSports as a partner to build upon the tradition of excellence at Angels Crossing Golf Club,” says Kalamazoo County State Bank CEO Jim MacPhee. “KemperSports has a reputation as one of the premier management firms in the golf course management industry and we look forward to utilizing their expertise for the betterment of the golf course community.”
The course continues to garner awards as it was ranked among Golfweek’s “Top 10 Courses You Can Play” (2007) and the “Top 100 Residential Courses” (2008). It also ranked no. 5 on the 2009 Golf Digest list of best public-access courses in the state of Michigan.
“Angels Crossing is a very well respected golf course. We look forward to bringing a first class golf experience to golfers in Michigan and throughout the Midwest,” says KemperSports CEO Steve Skinner.
