We had another wet & wild weekend this week between Sunday and Monday night the course took on approximately 13 inches of rain accumulation. The Golf Course and Practice Facilities will remain CLOSED until further notice. The Maintenance Team has a daunting task ahead of them, so please be patient while they work their magic to get the course back into playing shape.
While we are shut down you can use your reciprocal benefits at our sister courses; Blackhawk (you can book a tee time seven days in advance), Oxford Greens, & Tunxis (you can book a tee time 48 hours in advance at either of these two clubs). Below are the phone numbers for all three Pro Shops. Remember to tell them you are a member at Silo Point when booking your tee time.
