The City of Saskatoon’s three golf courses (Holiday Park, Silverwood, and Wildwood Golf Courses) have rescheduled the final day of operation from Sunday, October 27 to Friday, October 18, 2024. The change in weather forecast has accelerated the original plan to ensure fall maintenance is complete prior to drops in temperature and the arrival of moisture. This will give the golf courses the best opportunity to provide quality conditions for the start of the 2025 season. The driving ranges will remain open until Sunday, October 27.
The last day of operation at each course is as follows:
Silverwood
Holiday Park
Wildwood
