Mill Creek Golf Course is a new addition to the 2016 schedule for the Golf Channel Amateur Tour. The Golf Channel Amateur Tour provides an authentic tour quality experience for players of all ages and abilities. There are active tours in 50 cities in 2016, The Mill Creek Championship is part of the Cleveland tour and will be taking place on Saturday, June 11.
The June 11 event will have 12 flights, six of them senior flights. The players will be matched by age and skill set. The Mill Creek Championship is a qualifying event for the National Championship which will be held at Innisbrook Golf Resort in Tarpon Springs, Florida.
Brian Tolnar, PGA Director of Golf for Mill Creek MetroParks, provided this comment when asked about the Golf Channel Amateur Tour, “to be added to a tour schedule that includes courses such as TPC Sawgrass, Pinehurst, and Chambers Bay is very exciting. I think it speaks to the work we have put in at Mill Creek Golf Course in the past year. Not only to improve the course, but to build relationships in the golf community. Our team and I are thrilled to bring this event to the Valley.”
The deadline to register for the Mill Creek Championship is June 8, 2016 and registrations should be done through www.gcamtour.com.

Mill Creek MetroParks staff recently made the decision to postpone the 2016 Master Gardener Series. Last year’s, and now this year’s, participation is the lowest in the program’s history. The decline in attendance is attributed in part to the fact that The Ohio State University’s Mahoning County Extension office offers a very similar program that happens around the same time.
Fellows Riverside Garden staff has been working for the past year to improve the content and the scheduling of these classes to gain greater interest. It is the staff’s goal to ensure that the quality of the programming remains top-notch while working to develop partnerships in the community in an effort to eliminate any duplication of services.
The Advanced Master Gardener Series will proceed as previously planned. Anyone interested in a 2016 Master Gardener Program is encouraged to contact Eric Barrett at The Ohio State University’s Mahoning County Extension office. We look forward to the return of this program at Fellows Riverside Garden in 2017!
