Calgary golfers have been waiting for a long time, but they will soon be able to use their golf clubs and play golf again.
The City of Calgary says it is getting ready to open two of its own golf courses later this week. McCall Lake and Maple Ridge golf courses will open, depending on the weather, on Friday.
People can book tee times online by going to the city website. Lower rates will apply to both courses.
The city will provide more information about its plans on Wednesday.
Although many Calgary golfers may be eager to play golf, the off-season was shorter than usual for some because the city opened Maple Ridge and Shaganappi golf courses for play on December 5, 2023, due to unusually warm weather late last year. The city says all tee times were booked in less than an hour.
Several golf courses in the Edmonton and Lethbridge areas have also already opened for spring play.
