With Millbrook Country Club to the fore in organising two events this week to celebrate the golf resort’s 25th birthday, Philip Chandler asks what drives it. For 48 golfers playing Arrowtown’s Millbrook Resort on Tuesday, it wasn’t any old golf day. Dressed in vintage golf attire, they were Millbrook Country Club members proudly celebrating, to the tee, the resort’s 25th birthday. The celebration also threw a spotlight on Millbrook’s little-known country club, which is also organising a black-tie silver anniversary ball this Saturday. Currently it has about 480 family memberships, comprising roughly half Millbrook home owners and half non-owners, who are mostly locals.
