BallenIsles—a landmark Palm Beach Gardens golf club for 50 years—is going through a multi-year enhancement plan led by Chief Operating Officer Ryan Walls. Recent renovations include a new grand clubhouse and redesign of the South golf course with famed architect Rees Jones. Future plans include a new pickleball complex, a sports complex expansion, and golf facility renovation. Key members of Walls’ leadership team include 25-year Director of Golf Jeff Fitzherbert; Kevin Frost, Director of Agronomy for a decade; and Executive Chef Fabian Ludwig. “We have a membership with high expectations, a forward-thinking board, and experienced and dedicated staff,” says Walls. “Whether we are upgrading one of our three legendary golf courses, refining our menus, or giving a golf lesson, the results are outstanding. We enjoy nothing more than seeing our members happy.” Membership certainly has its privileges at BallenIsles Country Club—the recipient of the Distinguished Club, Platinum Club, America’s Healthiest Club, and CMAA International Wine Society Awards.
