David Whelchel, senior designer for Hurdzan/Fry Golf Course Design,
and member of the American Society of Golf Course Architects, will assume a
new role as Hurdzan/Fry's International Project Coordinator effective
mid-September 2007.

"David has been with us for almost 18 years," said Dr. Michael
Hurdzan, "and has become our 'go to guy' on some of our most challenging
projects, particularly those overseas. Now he will lessen his time as a
designer and assist us in coordinating and producing quality projects for
international clients. Currently David is lead designer on projects in
Italy, Korea, and South Africa, so he knows how to get results in different
cultural situations."

Whelchel was formerly the golf coach at the University of Arkansas
before becoming involved in golf course construction in Florida in 1983, and
thereafter he joined Ron Garl Design as a designer, before being recruited
by Hurdzan in 1990. He has been lead designer on projects throughout North
America as well as Hurdzan/Fry projects in Australia. His wife Jean is a
senior finance manager at Wal-Mart corporate headquarters in Bentonville,
Arkansas.

"I have enjoyed my time at Hurdzan/Fry and it is difficult to leave central
Ohio which has become my second home," said Whelchel, "but I want to slow
down a little bit and be back in my home state of Arkansas and enjoy my
family and golf there. I am happy to continue with Hurdzan/Fry in this new
capacity, and hope to further develop our international presence and
reputation."

The Whelchel's will reside in Bella Vista, Arkansas.
