Inclement Weather Impacting Championship and Executive Golf Course: UPDATE 8/2/2024

Effective Saturday August 3, 2024, in advance of Potential Tropical Cyclone Four, The Championship Golf Management Team and the District Executive Golf Management Team will temporarily close Championship and Executive Golf Courses listed below until further notice. Stormwater Management Plans mandate pre-storm actions lower certain retention ponds which are at or near holding . Each impacted Golf Course will have irrigation systems running until further notice to further reduce basin levels in anticipation of a major rain event this weekend impacting The Villages. Dumping irrigation water on the Golf Courses and movement of water from one area to another helps to ensure the integrity of our pond-holding capabilities throughout the various retention basins and prevent flooding within residential areas.

Championship Golf:

Hacienda Hills (Oakes), Glenview (Tally Ho), Arnold Palmer (Cherry Hill), Cane Garden (Jacaranda), Mallory Hill (Amelia), Havana (Hemingway), Evans Prairie (ALL), Bonifay (Destin), Belle Glade (Seminole), Mickey Lee & Jubilee

Executive Golf:

Silver Lake, Chula Vista, Mira Mesa, De La Vista, Amberwood, Oakleigh, Churchill Greens, Belmont, Heron, Bogart, Bacall, Sandhill ,Turtle Mound, Yankee Clipper, Southern Star, Bonita Pass, Redfish Run, Tarpon Boil, Palmetto, Sweetgum, Mangrove, Escambia, Okeechobee, Sarasota & Volusia.

Thank you for your understanding. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact District Executive Golf Offices at 352-674-1885.

So our golf got canceled today. Would rather sit read a book (no non stop TV weather) and be happy for those who don’t end up with a new water feature in their yard.
Plus Little comedy for the few who try to drive cart through the water, cause it didn’t look that deep.

We often see the nearby pond lowered before a storm. My wife asked the other day why are TV's watering systems on when it is raining. I told her because of the upcoming storm.
