Pinehurst golf course came into existence back in 1895 when a gentleman by the name of James Walker Tufts purchased 6,000 acres of sandy, clear-cut land in an area called the 'Sandhills' located in Moore County, North Carolina
The 'Sandhills' is a strip of ancient sand dunes that is evidence of where the ocean coast used to be.
Tufts had a background as a talented entrepreneur, who made his fortune patenting soda fountain machines in addition to being the founder of American Soda Fountain Company. After purchasing the acreage in North Carolina, Tufts hired the Olmstead firm, which was the country's most prominent landscape architect and design firm, to plan the resort village. The Olmstead firm accepted the offer and for a contract price of $300 began the design of the golf course. The village design was typically New England with curving, twisting roads leading from a central village green. Architects from Boston designed the hotels, boarding houses and cottages and on December 31, 1895, the Holly Inn opened its doors.

New Unity Marketing report finds consumers cutting back on Valentine's Day greetings card -- Make-your-own-cards offer consumers an attractive alternative with the personal touch
Valentine's Day is the third most popular holiday for greeting cards, behind Christmas and Mother's Day, but marketers in this space may not get their typical first quarter lift from card sales this year. In 2009 fewer consumers purchased greeting cards for holidays and occasions, such as birthdays, anniversaries and others, as compared to 2007 levels and this trend toward fewer greeting cards is expected to continue in 2010, according to a new study of the greeting card and stationery market from Unity Marketing.
