Kitchener, the Yukon and Libya?

Did the headline cause your attention? How possibly could the three places listed above be related? Well, we are proud to say that they are all places where Shawn P. Watters & Associates are currently working on projects. Close to home in Kitchener, we are currently reconstructing Doon Valley (which was mentioned in a previous post - Youth Golf: A 'Driving Force'), a project which has been nearly decade in the making. The course should be ready for play in the Fall of 2010. As for the Yukon, we were approached by a man to see if we would be interested in working on a development in the Yukon. Without hesitation, we agreed. We are currently putting together a masterplan for an eco-resort that they would like to develop. After reading up about the Yukon, it sounds like quite the territory, which few have discovered. It is a perfect place for hiking, mountain biking, wildlife viewing and white water rafting and is also home to the world's smallest desert, the Carcross Desert. We look forward to visiting the Yukon at a later date and will keep you updated with the development on this exciting project. Finally, if you haven't heard yet, we were approached a few years ago by a man who wants to create a golf course in Libya. Yes, that Libya. Although it is home to just one ATM (a fact which is certain to change), Libya is experiencing a travel boom and is slowly attracting tourists one by one. Little known fact: Libya is said to be home to the greatest Roman and Greek ruins outside of Rome. We are in the planning stages of a golf course near Benghazi, Libya's second largest city. It sounds like a neat place to visit, definetely one of the new hot spots in which to visit before it becomes overdeveloped. That's it for me.
