| The Course History |
| Colonial Ridge Golf Course started life in 1972 as Cee Jay Golf Course. It was built by Clair Jacobsen and his family originally as a nine-hole golf course. The course under went two expansion projects, first to fourteen holes in 1977, and then to eighteen holes in the early 1980's. Over the years many projects have taken place to get the course to the current lay out, the latest being the redesign of holes five through nine which opened in the spring of 2004. |
| Our beginning year was a success and we hope we were not too much of a mess. The greens are resting comfortably now getting ready to meet their "Match". The birdie and eagles are in their nests - eagerly getting a long winter rest. They will be flying early next spring- all ready to give their opponent a sting. We hope you are there, joining in the fun - and we appreciated your patronage in '71. |

| Cee Jay Golf Course was purchased by the Waffle family in the spring of 2005. The purchase was spearheaded by Jeffrey Waffle, current President, who worked for the Jacobsen family for 17 years. Jeffrey knew he wanted to work in the golf industry since he was a little boy and made a pact with his father, Glenn Waffle, current Vice President, that they would someday own a golf course together. |
