Course Improvements

Harvard Gulch Golf Course Update

Harvard Gulch Pond and Irrigation Improvements In Progress

Due to hot dry winter, some turf damage from construction has occurred. This has pushed the opening back to mid-May. Stay tuned for more details.

This project will provide the following benefits:

• Conservation of potable water
• New seating and viewing areas
• Constant water circulation reducing mosquito breeding grounds, population, growth and development
• Restoration of native species and wildlife
• Additional character and a new challenge to the golf course
• Improved irrigation equipment for less water usage and more efficient energy consumption
• Improved course drainage

Follow updates on our website at https://www.cityofdenvergolf.com/capital_improvements/

The new irrigation system installation continues and we look forward to wrapping up the irrigation installation toward the end of March. The irrigation contractor is in the process of installing lateral lines and heads that have all been staked. The mainline is completed and energized for winter watering.

The new irrigation pond at Harvard Gulch is taking shape. When completed, the project will replace the current potable water source with City Ditch water as the main source of irrigation water for the park and golf course. Excavation is nearly complete. The clay pond liner will be installed in the next week or so. The blue intake line is being installed simultaneously to the grading and install of the liner.

Kennedy Golf Course Safety Notice

Your safety is very important to us, therefore we have closed the bridge on Creek #9 at Kennedy Golf Course.

The annual release of water from the Cherry Creek reservoir caused underscoring to the bridge making it unsafe. Unfortunately, repairing or replacing the bridge is not a quick fix. We are closing it until we can repair or replace it. There will be an alternate route provided during this time.

Construction on the bridge is scheduled to take place December - February. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we make the repairs.
