Dispatches from the San Francisco Golf War

Brent Plater (one of the primary advocates for the destruction of the historic landmark Alister MacKenzie Sharp Park golf course) was quoted spouting this absurdity in a local independent paper: "Nobody in San Francisco cares about Sharp Park... if that golf course were to fall into the ocean tomorrow, nobody would blink an eye."

So I am uploading a few clips to offer a dose of reality. these are some of the people who care deeply about Sharp Park. And a few of the people who will be hurt if Brent Plater gets his way.

I've attended a number of SF government committee meetings on Sharp Park over the last year. They have all been well attended by people who care a great deal about Sharp Park golf, with meetings lasting for many hours to accommodate all who want to voice their opinion to our tone deaf Board of Supervisors. My observation is the Sharp Park supporters always outnumber those who would destroy the course.

As an indicator of the depth and breadth of support for the course, I submit a few clips I shot at a fundraiser and rally for the course last October. These were shot using a little point-and-shoot camera - so the quality is not great. But there were sure a lot of people and pols who care a great deal about Sharp Park Golf in attendance:
