Golf courses opening — and re-opening — in Calgary this weekend

Some Calgary golf courses are opening (and re-opening) this weekend.

The city opened the 18-hole courses at McCall Lake and Maple Ridge earlier this month in the midst of dry and warm weather.

But, a dip below freezing and wet, heavy snow soon curtailed those plans.

However, McCall and Maple Ridge will be re-opened for the season on Saturday, April 20, as will the course at Shaganappi Point.

The nine-hole course and driving range at Confederation Park will open for the first time this year on Sunday, April 21.
