Local golf course receives big donation

The Kerrville Parks and Recreation Department was extremely excited to receive a large donation to the Scott Schreiner Golf Course recently. Stanley Brunsman contributed $20,000 for improvements to the Hole No. 1 starting area in memoriam to his father, K.K. Brunsman.

Brunsman and his father used to play the course every week for 15 years, and the course became a very special place for each of them because they shared so many memories there together. “I was very fortunate to get to spend time with my father playing golf like we did, and I wanted to help improve the course so that others could have just as much enjoyment as we did,” Brunsman said.

According to Kerrville Parks and Rec. Director Ashlea Boyle, “With his contribution, the department was able to make improvements to the start of the course by adding a new concrete cart path to the driving range and upgrading the Hole No. 1 cart path from granite/dirt to concrete.” Boyle goes on to say that other noticeable improvements were made including improved landscaping.
