Concerns raised over future of two local golf clubs
ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Residents and club members are seeking help to save Blue Heron Golf Club in Walworth. As of Thursday morning, an online petition has reached nearly 1,000 signatures to oppose rumored plans to redevelop part of the golf course into new housing tracts. Those behind the petition are concerned about the environmental impact, congestion and traffic, changing the town's character, and losing a place that hosted many golfing icons like Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer. The golf club went under new ownership earlier this year when Jason Calder of Calder Homes and his family took over. Calder Homes was asked about the concerns for Blue Heron's future. They said it's too early to share more, and they 'won't have an application into the town for several months.' Meanwhile, there is a website that's encouraging people to 'Build Your Dream Home at Windward Lake.' It features a flyover video of the clubhouse and a design plan for Blue Heron. The Town of Walworth posted the following message: 'The Town of Walworth has not received an application for the Winward Lake Home Project. The new property owners have not approached any of the Walworth Town Board, Planning Board, or Zoning Board regarding any possible proposed plans for the property. We kindly ask for your patience until/if the Town is approached by the property owners. Until an application is filed, the Town will refrain from discourse regarding the property as its future remains conjecture until the point of formal site application.' In addition, residents are also concerned about Victor Hills in Ontario County after the owners addressed rumors about the golf course: After many cherished years of operation, the course is currently on the market. However, we want to clarify that it has not been sold, and we remain fully committed to continuing operations. 'We are deeply grateful for your unwavering support and the countless memories we've shared with you over the years. We're looking forward to a fantastic summer season filled with great golf and good times!' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
