A local committee scheduled a site visit to Black Birch next Tuesday, the 9th, at 4:30 p.m. to meet with Alex Goodman, Northeast regional business development director for the golf division of Kemper Sports, a committee member said during the meeting.
The committee member, speaking during new-business announcements, said Kemper Sports now manages Lake of Isles and other courses connected to the tribe at Foxwoods and is looking to expand its presence in Connecticut. "We have a meeting and tour at Black Birch next Tuesday at 04:30 with Alex Goodman," the committee member said, citing Goodman's local base and the company's interest in the market.
Committee members used the discussion to confirm attendance and logistics. The member said they copied Dan as the likely contact for golf carts and asked for a headcount to plan the visit. Several members indicated they could attend; one member noted tentative availability. No formal vote or contract was discussed or adopted during the meeting.
The tour is framed as an exploratory, business-development visit; the committee did not take formal action to authorize any agreement or financial commitment. The committee said it will proceed with the site visit on the scheduled date and collect final participant logistics ahead of the tour.
