We would like to thank all of our customers for their continued patronage and for making 2008 a sucessful year. It appears the Tapscott Road construction is now behind us and that come spring, customers will be able to access the Golf Centre via a new road, Select Avenue. This road runs east west between Markham Road and Tapscott Road immediately to the south of our entrance (see map). This new road will offfer an alternative access from Markham Road, particularly during rush hour when Steeles Avenue is busy.

We look forward to seeing you all back for the 2009 season. The staff at Scarborough Family Golf Centre is looking forward to our 4th season at our new location. For the 2009 Season, we have planned many improvements to the facility to continue our commitment of providing our customers the best family practice facility in the community.

Some of the improvements include the addition of an 18 Hole Miniature Golf Course. Our Miniature Golf has been designed with a “Medieval Theme”, with a large Central Castle as well as other smaller medieval structures throughout the whole course. We started construction of our Miniature Course in the late fall of 2008 and will continue in the Spring of 2009. Our goal is to have the course open by the end of April to early May.

Our intention is to ensure that our facility is a “Family” destination, where the entire family can come out and enjoy what we have to offer.

Other improvements planned include: replacing older Stance and Fibrebuilt mats; yardage markers on the artificial tee line so that customers are able to identify distances to each target; new tee dividers to the north end of the range; improving drainage under the covered tee area so that rains coming off the structure do not wash out into tee line area; additional chipping area adjacent to learning centre; bunker side green so that customers are able to hit sand shots onto a green. Some of these improvements were already started in the fall of 2008. The balance will be completed during the Spring of 2009.

Like we have in the past, the golf centre will be purchasing new range balls for the upcoming season. As the new balls arrive the previous seasons range balls will be culled out. That way you benefit the most from your practice experience.

Once again we look forward to seeing all our customers back for the 2009 Season and hope with our continued efforts of updating and improving our facility you will make Scarborough Family Golf Centre your family practice facility.
