Good news, the Bonita course may be expanding one more time. At least in overall length, not amount of holes. There is a meeting this week with the park officals to discuss utilizing an adjacent piece of land, ( Library/pool area), to allow for less congestion, and a better overall course. Several of the club members walked the holes yesterday, and there seems to be an agreement that the holes are acceptable. I will have the 3 proposed baskets set up on Sunday after league for further evaluation.

Also on another note. I have been talking with Stephen at FGCU. They have pulled the baskets from the campus for now, but the university has property out by the Buckingham Bar on Buckingham rd. I am in negotiation with them to install the baskets at that location, or work a deal with Edison St. College to install at the Ft. Myers campus. Summerlin and College Prky. I will keep you up to date on that one as well.

Wow Buckingham would be a great place.... Full 18? one pad or multiple?

FYI if anyone is interested.... Lee County just closed on the last parcel of the 400 acres that my family owned on Pine Island and is going to be developed into a park........ thats 400 acres of park!

Hi, I am new to this site, I just moved here from Ohio.  I am very interested in helping facilitate course development in Cape Coral.  Has there been any more talk about the development of a course in Yellow Fever Creek Park in Cape Coral?  Here is a link to the plans: http://www.conservation2020.org/preservedetails.cfm?proj_no=298   (click on Land Stewardship Plan).  Is there anyone advising the county or city of cape coral about this project, and encouraging them to get it done?

Like Andrew, I am also new to this site though I have lived in the Cape since 2004.  I would love to help get a course in Cape Coral and would also be interested in helping to get one started. 

I would also like to see this forum more active and will be doing my part in that as well!
