Provo country club to expand

PROVO (Deseret News) — Riverside Country Club will break ground for a new $12.5 million clubhouse and pro shop Thursday.

The 40,235-square-foot clubhouse and a 12,469-square-foot pro shop building will replace Riverside's former clubhouse, built in 1960, which has served as a gathering place for many Utah County events. It will feature a new restaurant and kitchen, ballroom, meeting halls, boardroom and locker rooms.

Gov. Gary Herbert and Provo Mayor John Curtis are among those expected to participate in the groundbreaking. The building was designed by Douglas W. Fredrickson Architects of Phoenix, Ariz., and Magleby Construction of Lindon will be the general contractor.
