Smalldog wonders about playing golf tomorrow Sat 8/23 :dontknow: went out before and the roads are just fine but I saw lots of 'new water hazards' on the fairways and in the bunkers ...........

Also does anyone have any information on the new courses being built over in back of Liberty Park ;D rumor has it there are three new courses going in there to open this fall

SmallDog,

Heard several announcements on the radio this afternoon of golf course openings and closures for Sat (assuming we don't get a lot more soaking rain). I don't remember all the closures...but, here are a few: Bogart, Heron, Pimlico, Hawkes Bay. It should be in the paper on Sat am. I have tee time at Truman and Turtle Mound, so, I'm happy...they are both open.

Champ Courses...again, some select closures (one of the nines on Havana, sounded like all of Glenview) but I wasn't paying quite as close attention to this.

As to you other question, according to the master Map of TV (the one pager they give out to prospective buyers) there are indeed 3 more exec courses slated for the area West of Poinciana/Liberty Park. Looks like they are in early stages though...I would be very surprised to see them open this fall. They will be called Tarpon Boil (ugh, what an ugly name), Amberjack, and Red Fish Run. These will be the last courses built North of 466A.

there are 3 exec courses to be built in district 8, which is behind LP. doubt very highly if even the most optimistic forecast has them coming in before Summer, 09 -- certainly not this year.

I called Lopez today and was told to call tomorrow early or listen to the radio for openings and closures.
