Davenport and Bettendorf Parks and Recreation Departments announced today that Emeis Golf Course will open for the season on Thursday, March 17. Located at 4500 W Central Park in Davenport, 18-hole Emeis is known in the Quad Cities as a long and challenging course. The course was established in 1961, and is a popular course for play. Tee times may be reserved by calling Emeis at 563-326-7825.
"The course made it through the winter without any major issues," according to Troy Evans, Senior Revenue Facilities Manager. Evans also pointed out that most golf fees remained the same for this year, and in fact some were even reduced. Over 100,000 rounds a year are played on Davenport's three public courses - Emeis, Duck Creek and Red Hawk. The other 2 courses are slated to open sometime later this month depending on conditions.
