Fazio Premier Clubs - 2012

Named after a fort just a few miles away that once served as the British military headquarters in colonial America, Frederica on St. Simons Island, Georgia, pays homage to the area’s history with a logo of English and Scottish flags side-by-side. It’s an unusual coupling given the two countries’ historical enmity, but when the Spanish tried to invade Georgia in 1742, a nearby settlement of Scots came to the aid of the Redcoats in St. Simons, helping to defeat the Spaniards in the “Battle of Bloody Marsh.” ...Read More

An architecturally superior residence is about much more than the walls, windows and a roof. Between architect, interior designer and builder, something magical has to rise from the practical.

over the tidal marshes of coastal Georgia and through the
oyster-shell covered entranceway at Frederica Golf Club,
what struck me most was the prominent American flag
positioned between the clubhouse, practice facility, and
first tee. During my day with Wayne and Marti Huizenga,
the first question I posed to them was, “Why is the
American flag placed in the center of the club facilities?”
Their response was quick and direct. “We are proud to
be Americans. As trite as it may sound, our flag has been
through a lot for us to have the freedoms we enjoy. We are
lucky to call America home.” ...Read More
