About the Course
Ipswich Country Club features an 18-hole championship golf course designed by the legendary Robert Trent Jones Sr. The course is a sanctuary for those looking for a great golf experience, with its natural terrain, lakes wetlands and tree-lined fairways. Few golf courses match the beauty and challenge found at Ipswich. The course offers play for every level of golfer amid the spectacular scenery of the Pitchpine Woodlands. Offering two magnificent practice facilities made up of a 3.5 acre driving range, 15-spot grass tee area and a 2.5 acre short game area with three bunkers and two putting greens, members and guests alike enjoy a variety of shot-making situations.

2025 GOLF OUTING

The weather sure cooperated for the Chamber’s annual golf tournament held July 21 at Ipswich Country Club. Golfers swung away under sunny skies and temps in the high 70s, making for a perfect day of 18 holes on one of the North Shore’s premier courses.

The Rockland Trust foursome of Dave Eidle, Ed Lomasney, Mike Ponchak and Brian Mason scored 17 under par, earning the Top Team spot. The Connolly Brothers team shot 15 under par, taking second place, and Nick Harron’s team from REV Kitchen took third pace at 14 under par.

Numerous Chamber members generously sponsored the sold-out tournament. Thank you to top sponsor David Morales and Wellpoint, which sponsored the $10,000 hole-in-one contest. No one won this year, but three golfers got really close. Dan Brothers of Edward Jones hit the cup, Mitch Marcus of Newburyport Bank hit the pin, and Maryann Quinn of Windover was only 2 feet away.

Other top sponsors on contest holes were Institution For Savings, North Shore Bank, Bertolino Foods, Amcon, Marine Max, and Salem Five. Boston SMB Law Associates was this year’s cart sponsor.

Groom Construction and REV Kitchen sponsored the contest on the putting green. And, many Chamber members donated great raffles, such as Red Sox tickets from both Salem Five and Eastern Bank; Celtics and Bruins tickets from TD Garden; gift cards from The Landing Restaurant and Giblee’s Menswear; and bay time at Golf Lounge18, to name just a few. Rockland Trust and Engie sponsored the great dinner after the tournament.

Next year’s tourney is already set for July 20, 2026, so mark your calendars!
