The snow fences are still up at the Portage Golf Club, but for how long?

The Portage Golf Club expects to be open earlier this season.  With the weather being unseasonably warm, Golf Pro Brad Young hopes to be open very shortly.

He adds since returning to the club on Thursday, he has been responding to e-mails and phone calls from people eager to get on the links.  Young says they don't have the tees up or the greens landscaped but members can come out and play the fairways or just walk the course.  He adds members have been telling him this year will be the earliest they have ever seen the Portage Golf Club open.  

Young says he has already taken quite a few memberships as he has only been registering members since Monday.  He expects to see a lot more friendly, familiar faces visiting him fairly soon.
