Schaumburg Golf Club delays Friday opening

Schaumburg Golf Club, the Schaumburg Park District's 27-hole championship course, has delayed a planned Friday, March 27, opening due to this week's snow. The course now anticipates a Monday opening, a park district spokeswoman said Wednesday. Walnut Greens, the district's nine-hole par three course also should open then.

"We're excited to get the season started," said Jonathan Parsons, PGA, general manager of golf operations. Green covers were a big help over the harsh winter in keeping the course in good shape, he said. Improvements this year include short game targets on the practice range and a new website, he said.
