It was a busy weekend at Mill Creek Golf Course in Boardman.
On Friday, Mill Creek announced a limit on the number of people in certain areas at once. Only seven people are allowed in the pro shop at once.
Management is urging people to show up no earlier than 10 minutes before tee-time.
They also recommend setting appointments on your phone.
“Whatever tee-time you want, you can book an extended period of time, a week or two out, and book your tee-time,” said Brian Tolnar, PGA golf director at Mill Creek Park. “So it’ll be a little more convenient. So we’ve been really pushing people to do the online to make it easier and help our staff out.”
Tolnar said staff members are required to wear masks. Employees will also get temperature checks before each shift.
