The Kampen redesign efforts began in 1996 with two main goals. To build a course that would challenge the top collegiate golfers and create an atmosphere of learning for Purdue’s students. The redesign included efforts from 32 Purdue students and one of the main projects was to build a water reclamation plant. All the water used on Kampen is recycled. “As a person who calls Indiana home, I am very pleased to have had the opportunity to build two of the finest university golf courses in the country at Purdue,” said Dye. Both courses have hosted the NCAA (golf) Championships and Kampen has a natural celery bog. Pete Dye’s incredible golf creations live on in Indiana on the Pete Dye Golf Trail.
