Spring Events at
Sleepy Hollow (3/16/2009)
As we move forward with our summer
activities, here are a few notes on what is available now.
Par Three Golf Course
The tentative date we have set to open for golf this summer is June
1st. Last year our golf course received damages during the
flooding and we chose to take the end of last summer for some
reconstruction. This year we are choosing to delay the opening day
of golf in order to offer the best possible experience. Obviously
the weather this spring will dictate a lot of what happens, so please
check back for additional updates. If you have any questions at
all, please call the general number 515.262.4100.
