Golf & recreation venue bringing 240 new jobs to Vineyard in 2019
Utah County will be the site of a new major golf and entertainment venue with construction beginning in the spring. The Golf Club will be a three story, state-of-the-art facility offering golfing bays, golf instruction, chef-inspired dining as well as concerts and nightlife, according to a release from Dynamic Entertainment, developer of the project.
The venue, to be built in the fast-growing community of Vineyard, is expected to provide more than 240 jobs to Utah County, the release said. Construction will be under the direction of X Development Group, currently involved in other projects surrounding the venue.
“Being born and raised in Utah, I’ve realized Utah County has a real shortage when it comes to sports and premium entertainment,” said David Allred, founder and CEO of Dynamic Entertainment. “To help bridge this gap, I’m excited to bring to life a new, cutting-edge golf venue for families and businesses in our community.”
The Golf Club will feature climate-controlled hitting bays, a full-service restaurant, a sports bar, roof terrace, golf academy, pro shop, live music venue and a flexible private event space. The golf bays will use radar-based tracking technology and will be open year-round. The Golf Club will be open to children, families and groups, regardless of skill level or golf experience, Allred said.
Vineyard has seen explosive growth in recent years, making it the fastest-growing city in Utah and the third-fastest-growing city in the nation, according to Forbes. With approximately 400 new residents each month, the growth is expected to continue. The Golf Club will be located in the city’s entertainment district on North Mill Road, which is anchored by the Larry H. Miller Megaplex Theatre and is near Utah Valley University’s new campus and future UTA TRAX and FrontRunner stops.
“Vineyard is excited about The Golf Club joining our growing and diverse local economy,” said Vineyard Mayor Julie Fullmer. “We believe that The Golf Club will help solidify Vineyard as a quality place to live, conduct business and develop as a regional power center for entertainment and recreation.”
