Description

Press release from the Sacramento County Government: September 1, 2021 Campus Commons Golf Course, owned and managed by the Golf Division of Regional Parks, is temporarily closed through Dec. 31, 2023, while erosion protection measures are put in place along the American River. These erosion protection measures must be put in place due to the significant risk of erosion along the riverbank that must be addressed in order to protect the levees and preserve the berm on which the Campus Commons Golf Course rests. "To all of our friends and families who have been loyal players and users of our golf course throughout the years, we appreciate your patronage and thank you for your patience during this temporary closure," said Greg Bliek, Golf Division Manager. "We expect to be back open in 2024 with an improved and refurbished course for the community to enjoy." The improvements will be constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in collaboration with the California Department of Water Resources, Central Valley Flood Protection Board, and Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency. The construction may cause a temporary inconvenience for recreational users, but the community will end up with safer levees, reduced flood risk and a complete restoration of the golf course that will include new greens, tee boxes, turf, irrigation systems and layout!
