Apparently klm in Hinsdale now has concrete tees. I was told they were poured a couple days ago. I'm heading up there in about an hour to check it out.

A crew of us (DISContinuum) have been working hard at Bevier Park in Waukegan this year. The Waukegan Parks have been awesome. The course is expanding from 18 to 21 holes. Of the 21 holes 15 of those are or will be concrete by the end of next week. The rest are wooden framed tee pads with rubber fly pads on top. Hole #1 & #19 have long tee pads. Plans are for long tees on #13 & #20 next year. By the end of next week the entire course will have new tee signs on all holes. Hole #16 just got a little harder. The tee was moved back about 20 feet. Old hole #9/#18 has been moved back across the creek.
I am addressing a major issue and hope to have it done by the IOS Tournament on the 19th. The tall grass across the street (holes 6 thru 11) has gotten out of control. I hope to have that resolved soon!
If you have never played Bevier follow the red arrows on the poles of the baskets.

KLM does have cement. Played there yesterday. A few holes were slightly changed with the placing of the teepads but nothing that significant. Hole 3 is shorter, 8 is 40ft back, 11 was moved 40ft to the right, and 13 was moved back which brings some long hanging branches in play. Overall, it still is tough to play on the weekends with all of the sports and dogs on the course.
The "new and improved" Central Park in Oak Brook is very nice. I'm sorry it took me so long to check it out and I hope to get back there again soon.
Thank you to everyone involved with the re-design and installation!!! :clap::clap::clap:

Pretty sure that #8 and Gary are still working on that one. The last time I saw the "layout" there wasn't all that much that needed clearing (mainly the tall grass). That was about a year ago though and at that time they were still working with the park on the layout, 5 acres seems about right though because more "open" areas are being used as well.
FWIW, I haven't been there in a while to check it out, but the goat idea is interesting and I'm not sure what or who's design is being used.

It's Columbus Day so I went exploring. Course in Evergreen Park Il.
Like Dag said the park is at 91st and Rockwell. The park has no name yet use to be a golf course a man told me he lives across the street from the sled
hill which has 3 basket on the side of it should be fun.
Parking lot where the driving range is this is all new. I'm think hole 1 should
be around there also new pond, and building a gazebo. Park is still being worked on. Open, flat, and hilly man said use to be a lot of big trees now just stagger around the course.
