Chambersburg Country Club closes for turf maintenance starting Tuesday, with the course set to reopen October 17.
Chambersburg Country Club in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania is closing its championship course this week for fall aerification, a routine maintenance procedure essential to course health. The closure began Tuesday, October 13, with the course scheduled to reopen Saturday, October 17.
During the aerification period, the club’s dining facilities—the Pub—along with the golf shop and practice tee will remain temporarily unavailable to members and guests. The Pub and golf shop will resume operations Wednesday, October 15, ahead of the course’s full reopening on the weekend. Aerification is a standard practice at well-maintained golf courses, involving the mechanical removal of small soil cores to improve drainage, reduce compaction, and promote healthy turf growth heading into the fall and winter months.
