Monroe Township, NJ-–RDC Golf Group, Inc. (RDC), a leading golf course ownership and management company headquartered in Monroe Township, New Jersey, announces that it has been awarded an operational advisory services contract for the Middlesex County (NJ) Improvement Authority’s (MCIA) three golf facilities:  Tamarack Golf Course in East Brunswick; The Meadows at Middlesex Golf Course in Plainsboro; and the Raritan Landing Golf Course in Piscataway.  RDC now owns or manages nine golf courses at seven locations from Florida to New Jersey.

 

Beginning this month, RDC will work with the MCIA to analyze current golf and hospitality operations and the company will offer recommendations for marketing the facilities, rounds generation, systems implementation (tee times, etc), and course maintenance.  Since its opening in 1993 by New Jersey native Christopher Schiavone, RDC has rapidly become a recognized industry leader in golf course ownership and management. In addition to providing operational advisory services, RDC also actively acquires properties and offers management, financial and marketing services to clients.    

 

“RDC looks forward to applying its professional experience to the Middlesex County Improvement Authority’s portfolio of golf courses.  We feel strongly that our analysis will result in recommendations that can positively impact the financial results of these facilities and the MCIA,” says Christopher Schiavone. “Our team at RDC, including John Napier and Matt Galvin, has many years of experience that is ideally suited to the assignment.”

 

According to its website, the MCIA was created in 1990 to serve as a catalyst for a wide variety of programs designed to improve the quality of life in its municipalities and throughout the County.  In addition to its three golf facilities, the MCIA operates the County recycling program, manages Roosevelt Care Center, finances major infrastructure improvements and re-develops property.
