Holiday Park Golf Course receives SoloRider golf cart from Golf Saskatchewan
September 6, 2023 - 1:30pm
Thanks to a generous donation from Golf Saskatchewan, Holiday Park Golf Course now has a SoloRider golf cart available for mobility-impaired players.
SoloRider golf carts are single-passenger carts that allow golfers to play from tee to green without leaving the cart. The golf cart is equipped with a swiveling, elevated seat and ergonomic controls.
“The cart can go almost anywhere on the course including the bunkers and greens and there is no fear of it damaging the grass”, says Brian Lee Executive Director / CEO of Golf Saskatchewan.
“These unique features have helped both the City and Golf Saskatchewan strive to provide recreation for all who want to participate by increasing accessibility and encouraging opportunity within the sport,” says Roxane Melnyk, Recreation Services Manager for the City of Saskatoon.
This is the second SoloRider golf cart that Golf Saskatchewan has made available in Saskatoon and it is free of charge to use. The City of Saskatoon’s Silverwood golf course has been home to a SoloRider since 2014. The SoloRider carts can be booked by calling the pro shops at Holiday Park or Silverwood golf courses when making a tee time reservation.
