“Gleneagles Country Club has been a keystone in the Plano community for more than 25 years,” said Mickey Wszolek, Gleneagles general manager. “These improvements – designed to match members’ changing lifestyles and interests – will allow Gleneagles to continue in that role, providing an even more stylish setting and more opportunities for members to connect, play, work, host and celebrate.”
“This is an exciting time for all the staff and members at Gleneagles,” said Alan Butz, chairman of the club’s Board of Governors. “We have renovations going on all over the clubhouse as well as the golf courses – making one of Dallas’ best country clubs even better. We are all looking forward to the new Fitness Center being built on the main campus. The new dining areas, the added terrace and especially the new and expanded wine bar are all causing a lot of buzz.”
