savvygirl 78 reviews

Treyburn country club is a upscale country club located 24 miles outside of Durham, NC inside a gated and meticulous residential community. It has a great swimming pool, tennis courts facility and walking paths throughout the course. The Golf Course was designed by Tom Fazio, is a 7,070 yard Championship Golf Course (Par 72), and was named "Best New Course" by Golf Digest. the locker room also has a "Michael Jordan" locker designated for the basketball legend himself. This is because MJ used to play the Treyburn course often.

The Divers Alert Network Headquarters is here in Durham, as is the Duke University Hyperbaric Research Center ( Recompression Chambers used when divers get the"bends"). If you're a Scuba diver or pilot, these places are definitely worth stopping in for a look. These folks do cutting edge research into the science of differences in pressure affect the human body. Call DAN ahead of time and they may be able to arrange a tour of the hyperbaric facility.

While the East Campus is not as beautiful as the West Campus, there are still some nice sights to see, like this statue of Washington Duke.
