Another great venture for Bartley Cavanaugh Golf Course in 2009 was the certification process was finished for Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program (ACSP). Doug Parker, Capital City golf manager, and Superintendent Campbell Turner began this process back in December of 2007.
The ACSP program provides an advisory service to help the golf course develop effective conservation and wildlife enhancement programs. One of the projects that have been completed is the placing of nesting boxes located next to the Gazebo off the ninth and eighteenth greens.
Another area is a small triangle section of land to the right of the fourth green and the right of the 5th white tee box that has been designated for low maintenance as an effort to help maintain cover for our nesting wildlife.
All certificate’s are posted on the information board for the public to see. Campbell Turner and his staff did a fantastic job making this process as seamless as possible.

Editor's Note: All of the bird pictures above were taken on the Bartley Cavanaugh Golf Course. And of course, these TWO WILD TURKEYS were not harmed on the course.
