We are members at Sharks Tooth and have heard nothing other than the brief letter we received a couple weeks ago.  All it said was Joe bought the club and more info would follow.

Maybe this will give you an idea...

[B]The St. Joe Company Completes the Acquisition of Shark's Tooth Golf Course in Bay County, Florida[/B]
Thursday August 16, 5:25 pm ET

..."We now have a very compelling golf package to offer prospective property owners," said Rummell. [B]"The acquisition of the Shark's Tooth Golf Club provides a significant boost to the golf experiences that we plan to make available to JOE-selected property owners and resort guests in Northwest Florida."[/B]


JOE's Camp Creek Golf Club, located nearby and designed by Tom Fazio, has earned numerous accolades. Last year the course captured "America's Top Golf Course" in the Zagat Survey. Camp Creek has been honored by Golf Week, the American Society of Landscape Architects and Travel + Leisure Golf, and most recently served as a regional qualifying venue for this year's U.S. Open at Oakmont.


"In addition, JOE's highly-innovative `Origins' course at WaterSound, with its six-hole Davis Love III layout, has earned extensive praise from golfers and golf writers. JOE's purchase of the Bay Point Marina earlier this year included access to the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course at the Bay Point resort," said Rummell. [B]"This golf network can offer our customers a wide variety of golf that appeals to all skill levels."[/B]


[B]"These championship golf courses[/B] -- along with Miraval at WindMark Beach, the Bay Point Marina, the Port St. Joe Marina, and the existing amenities at WaterColor, WaterSound Beach and WaterSound -- [B]allow JOE to provide unparalleled access to the experiences that make Northwest Florida special," said Rummell.[/B] "We plan to organize and expand this list with programs and outdoor recreational experiences that are being developed with strategic allies such as Orvis Company. Prospective real estate customers who want to experience the best of life in Northwest Florida will be able to find a unique and compelling package with JOE."

***********

Word on the street around here is that JOE, along with Orvis, is also looking at creating a hunting lodge on the 3500 acres between the Industrial Park and WaterSound.

Maybe this will give you an idea...

We've got a number of JOE owners (shareholders) on board....I'm sure they've got some kind of clue.
