Last round for Fox Valley Golf Club; special discounted daily rates until closing

After the final round of golf is played on Sunday, Nov. 1, the City of Aurora's Fox Valley Golf Club will permanently close on Monday, Nov. 2. It will not reopen for the 2016 golf season.

For more than four decades, the Fox Valley Golf Club on Route 25 has been a destination location for golfing and special events. It was annexed to North Aurora more than 20 years ago.

Due to its aged infrastructure that required more than $1 million dollars in upgrades, coupled with an increasingly competitive golf market in the Fox Valley, the Aurora City Council voted unanimously earlier this year to sell the facility to Odawa Development, LLC for $5 million.

"The city of Aurora and golf staff want to thank patrons who have continued to support the Fox Valley Golf Club over the past 40 years," said Jeff Schmidt, Aurora PGA Operations Manager.

For those who'd like to enjoy a final round or two at the Fox Valley Golf Club, special discounted daily rates will be offered for the next two weeks.
