The status of LaFayette Hills Golf & Country Club will come full circle in 2010 when it once again becomes a private club.
“LaFayette deserves to be a private club,” said head pro Joe Tesori. “It’s the way it was designed. It’s the way it’s supposed to be.”
Tesori said the decision was made just after Thanksgiving by managing member Mike Muraco, who has operated the course since buying it in late 2006.
Muraco ran LaFayette as a daily-fee facility in 2007 and 2008 and then introduced a membership drive last year to try to make it private. When the effort fell short of a 300-member goal, LaFayette was designated a semi-private course, with the hope that it could become private in 2010.
