CRAIGO BIDS $700,000 FOR SANDY BRAE

(02/17/2007)
Putnam County businessman and former state senator Oshel Craigo and his business partner bid $700,000 for the Sandy Brae golf course in Roane County.

The course is owned by Kanawha County Parks.

Kanawha County officials said they had hoped the 252-acre course would bring at least $1.16 million.

Sandy Brae would likely be used for residential housing if Craigo's company gets the nod.
