CITY HOSTING WINTER GOLF

GREAT FALLS, Montana – Got the winter blues? Good news! The City of Great Falls will be hosting Winter Golf at City golf courses again this winter, weather permitting, November 15 – February 15. Anaconda Hills will be open November 15 – December 31; Eagle Falls will be open January 3 – February 15; contingent on weather conditions. Hours will be 11:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. Gates will open at 11 a.m. and be locked at 4:00 p.m. All golfers must be off the course before 4:00 p.m. The driving ranges will not be available for use.

There will be no charge to golf during Winter Golf.

Guests are asked to stay off the regular greens. All eighteen holes will be open for golf. Carts will not be allowed. The course will not be open on holidays.
