    By David Young

    How do you build one of the nest golf courses in Latin America ona tropical island paradise while safeguarding the environment? Theanswer lies in careful planning, personal involvement and commitmentand ongoing liaison with the environmental authorities.

    In a wide ranging interview Maxime Navarre, the CEO of GrupoViveros, explained the steps that have been taken to ensure thatthe Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, will offer not only achallenging but enjoyable golng experience, with

    unrivalled ocean views from almost every hole, but will also remainenvironmentally sustainable, and protect the surrounding ocean. All ofwhich gives added value to home owners on an exceptional island.

    The course, now under construction under the personal ongoing

    supervision of Jack Nicklaus, has been carved out throughtropical jungle with the attention to detail that a concerned managementteam in tandem with a golng master can provide. Nothing has been

    overlooked from creating spots where air can ow through, to ensuring

    that the golng challenges are not overwhelming.

    To ensure that the multiple plant species of the island are protected ateam of ten workers carefully removes trees from the future fairwaysto a newly established tree nursery, where for every tree cut down,another will be planted and multiple replacements will be grown andmade available to home owners whose homes will occupy only 15 per-cent of their property. The speed with which plants in the tropics grow,will be a pleasant surprise to those from northern climates.

    Por David Young

    Cmo se construye una de las canchas de golf ms nas en Amricalatina en un paraso tropical de la isla mientras que salvaguarda el ambiente?La respuesta se encuentra en el cuidadoso planeamiento, implicacin y

    compromiso personal y enlace con las autoridades ambientales.

    En una entrevista con Maxime Navarre, el Gerente General deGrupo Viveros, explic las medidas que se han tomado paraasegurarse de que la cancha de golf de la rma de Jack Nicklaus, ofrecer una

    experiencia golstica, no slo desaante pero agradable, con vistas incompa

    rables al mar de casi cada hoyo, pero tambin seguir siendo ambientalmente

    sostenible, y proteja el ocano circundante, el cual da valor agregado a los

    dueos de casas en una isla excepcional.

    La cancha, ahora en construccin, bajo supervisin personal de

    Jack Nicklaus, se ha tallado a travs de la selva tropical, con atencin aldetalle en equipo, como solo un amo del golf puede proporcionar. No se hapasado por alto crear los puntos donde la brisa puede atravesar, y asegurarsede que los desafos no sean tan abrumadores.

    Para asegurarse de que las mltiples especies de plantas de la islaestn protegidas, un equipo de diez trabajadores quitan cuidadosamente

    rboles de los futuros fairways a un Vivero de rboles, en donde para cadarbol talado, otros sern plantados y los reemplazos sern crecidos y

    puestos a disposicin los dueos de las casas, los cuales que ocuparn solamente15% de su propiedad. La rapidez, con la cual las plantas crecen en las zona

    tropicales, ser una agradable sorpresa para las personas de climasnorteos.

    Every golf course needs large amounts of water to maintain itspristine look. The Viveros course will store water in specially createdreservoirs. Run off from the daily watering will be returned to aCanadian developed water treatment plant, before being re-used. Therewill be no overow into the ocean.

    Throughout the construction and use of the course, the protectionof the environment will be a prime concern for Grupo Viveros, saysMaxime, and no modications will be initiated without previous

    approval from ANAM, Panamas environmental protection agency,which is liaising on a daily basis with the management team.

    After the rst walking of the course by Jack Nicklaus, full time work

    started in January by the time the rainy season arrives in May, the ini-tial fairways will have been seeded, and the new golng pearl of the

    Pacic will be awaiting its rst challengers by years end. The 18th

    hole will be completed in 2011, but as the rst nine are completed and

    extended, the initial clubhouse will be readied, and extended alongwith the last nine and the arrival of new home owners.

    Cada cancha de golf necesita grandes cantidades de agua paramantenerse. La cancha en Viveros almacenar el agua en depsitos

    especialmente creados. Residuos del riego diario ser devuelto a una plantade tratamiento de aguas, antes de ser reutilizada. No habr desbordamiento

    en el ocano.

    A travs de la construccin y del uso de la cancha, la conservacion del

    ambiente ser una preocupacin primordial para Grupo Viveros, diceMaxime, y no se iniciar ninguna modicacin sin la aprobacin previa de

    la ANAM, la autoridad de proteccin del medio ambiente de Panam, queest comunicando diariamente con el equipo de gerencia.

    Despus de caminar la cancha, el trabajo de Jack Nicklaus comenz en

    enero 09 y para el tiempo que la estacin lluviosa llegue en mayo, losfairways iniciales habrn sido sembrados, y la nueva perla del golfaguardar sus primeros desaadores para nales de ao. El dcimo octavo

    agujero ser terminado en 2011, pero como se terminan y se amplan losprimeros nueve, el clubhouse ser preparado, y extendido junto con losprimero nueve y la llegada de nuevos dueos de propiedades dentro de la

    cancha.

    La construccin del ms prestigioso y escnico campo de golf de

    Amrica Central personalmente guiado por la mano y los ojos de la

    leyenda golsta que es Jack Nicklaus, ya se est construyendo en

    Isla Viveros.

    En diciembre, el Golden Bear trajo su equipo de diseadores en suprimer viaje a Panam y despus a la isla, para inspeccionar el terreno

    que ha sido creado en la jungla siguiendo el diseo preliminar.

    Desde el momento en que el equipo y el personal ejecutivo de Viverosllegaron a la isla, Nicklaus tom control, como ha hecho en muchasocasiones durante su carrera. l inclusive insisti en ir al frente en uncarro de golf cuando el grupo fue a ver las nueves calles rodeadas porla selva.

    Sentado a su lado, sosteniendo el libro sobre campos de golf, estaba suprincipal diseador asociado Chet Williams. Cuando llegaron al sitioque marcaba la localizacin de un futuro tee, Nicklaus, en pantalones

    cortos, camiseta y botas, salt de carro y camin con aplomo por lafutura calle estudiando la topografa, lneas de vista y posiblespeligros, con el mismo ojo por el detalle que lo hicieron una leyendacomo jugador y que ahora lo han convertido en el lder mundial en lacreacin de campos de golf.

    Su participacin personal es la marca de un Nicklaus Signature

    (Sello) campo de golf, lo que signica literalmente que l camina e

    campo, estudiando cada ngulo por jugabilidad, como lo haca cuandoganaba los ms importantes torneos.

    En ese da, como en el pasado, fue seguido por un grupo deadmiradores, desde trabajadores hasta ejecutivos de Viveros, suequipo, incluyendo a su hijo Jack Nicklaus II y un equipo de televisinPero su ojo estaba en la pelota del futuro y como sera jugada por losgolstas que le darn la bienvenida a los retos, pero que al mismo

    tiempo buscarn disfrutar de un da agradable al aire libre.

    l rpidamente not los acercamientos que necesitaban sercambiados, un curso de direccin all, una aproximacin de descensodemasiado elevada por all, e inclusive sugiri la reubicacin de un par defairways para aumentar la jugabilidad del campo para el golsta

    promedio y dar ms espacio para las casas que tenan que tener vistadel ocano y del campo de golf en dos direcciones.

    The construction of Central Americas most prestigious and scenic golfcourse, personally guided by the hand and eye of legend Jack Nicklaus,is under way at Isla Viveros.

    In December, the Golden Bear took his design team for his rst-ever

    trip to Panama, and then to Isla Viveros to survey the initial courserouting that had been created from this island jungle, according to thepreliminary design.

    From the moment the team and Viveros management staff arrived onthe island, Nicklaus took command, as he has done so many timesduring his playing and design career. He even insisted on driving thelead site vehicle, as the group set out to tackle the rst jungle-hemmed

    nine fairways.

    Seated alongside him, holding the eld book of the Signature Course,was Senior Design Associate Chet Williams. When they arrived at astake marking the location of a future tee, Nicklaus, clad in shorts,t-shirt and eld boots, climbed from behind the wheel and strode

    condently along the embryonic fairway, studying topography, sight

    lines and potential hazards, with the same eye for detail and challenge

    that made him a legend as a player, and now the acclaimed worldleader in designing golf courses.

    His personal involvement is the mark of a Jack Nicklaus SignatureCourse, which has him literally walking the course, studying everyangle for playability, as he had done on the way to fashioning the mostdecorated golf career in history.

    On this day, he was trailed by a group of admirers, fromconstruction workers to Viveros management to a television crew. Healso had alongside him his design team, including son Jack Nicklaus II.But his eye was on the ball of the future, to be played by golfers whowill welcome a challenge, but will also look for an enjoyable day out.

    He quickly noted approaches that needed to be changed, and a holedirection here or there that needed to be tweaked. He even suggestedrelocating a pair of fairways to make the course more playable for theaverage golfer, and provide space for homes that would have views ofthe ocean and the golf course in two directions.

    Cuando termin de caminar las futuras calles donde el trabajo queiba a empezar en enero 2009, Nicklaus abord un helicptero para

    sobrevolar la isla y ver desde el aire el diseo de la segunda etapadel campo, antes de dirigirse a vuelta a Panam, todava vestido ensus ropas de trabajo, para asistir a un almuerzo y tomar parte en una

    conferencia de prensa en el prestigioso hotel Bristol.

    Al tomar su lugar en el podio, sin notas para refrescar sumemoria, recapitul cada detalle de su gira, incluyendo sugerencias paracambios en el diseo que ayudaran a optimizar la ubicacin de las

    villas y enfatizando que todos los hoyos tendrn espectaculares vista

    del mar. Los detalles estaban rmemente grabados en su mente. Es

    ese tipo de detallismo en todo lo que hace lo llev a convertirse en elindiscutible rey del golf del siglo XX y adems de ser uno de los mejoresdiseadores de campos de golf del mundo. Y con su personaparticipacin en el proyecto, este es sin duda un campo con su sello yrma

    Nada en la regin podr rivalizar su jugabilidad y su espectacula

    ubicacin. Este campo ser el sueo de cada golsta.

    When he had walked the cleared, future fairways where work wasto begin in January 2009, Nicklaus boarded a helicopter to circle theisland and view the layout for the second stage of the course, beforeheading back to Panama, still in his work gear, for a lunch receptionand press conference at the prestigious Bristol Hotel.

    He took the podium and, without notes, recapped the details of histour, including his suggestions for layout changes that would optimizereal estate locations, and he constantly stressed the spectacular oceanviews that would be opened up at every hole. All the details werermly planted in his mind. It was that kind of approach to the task in

    hand that led him to becoming the unchallenged king of 20th centurygolf, and why he is now the worlds leading designer of golf courses.And with his personal involvement, it is a Signature Course.

    Nothing in the region will match its playability and spectacular set-tings. It will be the course of yours, and every golfers dreams.

    During his rst visit to Panama, Jack Nicklaus explained to a

    waiting TV crew the meaning of a Signature Golf Course, as

    opposed to the globally recognized Nicklaus Design-branded

    courses.

    The difference, Nicklaus said, is my personal involvement

    during the construction period.

    Nicklaus will visit the construction site at regular intervals toprovide the necessary input to keep the golf course progressingat the desired schedule. This input covers all stages of the designprocess and could include changes to the initial design that mayalter sight lines, approaches to the green, or the location of tees.

    On any Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, I design the course,

    Nicklaus explained. For a Nicklaus Design golf course, the team

    I have trained and provided a philosophy on what I believe is the

    best way to create a golf experience designs the course. I am notpersonally involved.

    The course at Isla Viveros will have the personal Signatureof Jack Nicklaus and, in addition, he will be working in closecollaboration with his son, Jack Nicklaus II, who is presidentof Nicklaus Design and has been involved in the creation of 35courses around the world.

    Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses have been credited forelevating and enhancing the relationship between golf andluxury home communities. Since independent research beganin the early 1990s, communities that feature a Jack Nicklaus

    Signature Golf Course as an amenity have resulted in the highestreal estate value, the highest average home price, and the greatestvelocity of home and lot sales.

    The survey also included the impact on membership fees, annualdues and greens fees. When all data was combined, a net present

    value was determined for each golf course designer, and Jack

    Nicklaus was the overall and overwhelming No. 1 choice.

    With the name Nicklaus behind a golf course, its value is enhancedtremendously. And that value will only grow with time.

    Durante su primera visita a Panam, Jack Nicklaus le explica un equipo de televisin el signicado de un campo de golf

    con Sello (Signature), el cual es totalmente diferente a los ya

    famosos campos de golf diseados por Nicklaus Design.

    La diferencia es que yo estoy involucrado personalmente durante

    el periodo de construccin, dijo Nicklaus.

    Esto signica, que l visita los sitios de construccin

    regularmente e insiste en hacer cambios que podran alterar laslneas de vista, formas de aproximar al green, la ubicacin de lostiros y otros detalles, vistos a travs de los ojos del maestro del

    juego y del diseo.

    En un campo de golf con el Sello y Firma de Jack Nicklaus, yo

    diseo el campo del golf. En un de diseo Nicklaus, el equipo queyo he entrenado lo realiza y yo no estoy involucrado, seal e

    golsta. El campo tendr el Sello personal de Jack Nicklaus yadems de esto, l estar colaborando muy de cerca con su hijo

    Jack Nicklaus II.

    Los campos de golf con la rma de Jack Nicklaus tienen la

    caracterstica de elevar y aumentar la relacin entre el golf y lascasas de estas lujosas comunidades. Una encuesta independienterealizada a principios de los 90s encontr que comunidades

    que poseen un campo de golf con sello de Jack Nicklaus comoamenidad, aumenta el valor de las propiedades, elevando el preciode las casas promedios, lo que ha hecho que viviendas y lotes sevendan ms rpidamente.

    La encuesta tambin incluye el impacto en el costo de lasmembresas, las primas anuales y la de los campos de golfCuando se combina toda esta informacin, el presente valor

    neto fue determinado por el diseador de cada campo de golf y

    en todo el estudio Jack Nicklaus fue el ganador, siendo la eleccinnmero uno entre todos los entrevistados.

    Con el nombre de Nicklaus detrs de un campo de golf, su valoraumenta tremendamente y ese valor sigue elevndose por muchotiempo.
