Spring is just around the corner, and Oak Brook Golf Club is gearing up for another incredible season! Throughout the offseason, the Village and Club staff have worked diligently to enhance the golfer experience by planning and introducing exciting new features that will elevate this beloved course.

“Thanks to another incredible season, pro-active staff management, and getting the Golf Club’s financial house in order; we are finally able to reinvest in our facilities, equipment, and grounds to enhance the Golf Club experience for the members and public alike” said Trustee Michael Manzo.

The first new amenity to be introduced will be golf carts with the state-of-the-art Visage Club Cart GPS system, at no additional charge. This advanced touchscreen display provides real-time images of each hole, accurate distances to the flag, and course navigation assistance—eliminating the guesswork from club selection and course management. These GPS systems will be installed before the season begins.

In mid-spring, golfers will notice construction of expanded parking. In previous seasons, parking was a challenge at peak times. This addition will ensure more available parking for residents, members and the public.

Another major highlight of the season will be the debut of a 22-bay covered driving range structure. Oak Brook Golf Club’s driving range has long been a favorite in the area, and this upgrade takes it to the next level. Whether it rains or shines, golfers will be able to practice comfortably shielded from inclement weather and enjoy the shade on sunny days while partaking in food and beverage from the full-service Grille. Additionally, the range will feature extended hours and season length for more opp-ortunities to refine your game.

“These upgrades are all about making Oak Brook Golf Club an even better destination for players of all skill levels,” said Trustee Melissa Martin. “From the expanded parking to the covered driving range and advanced GPS-equipped carts, every improve-ment is designed to enhance the golfer’s experience and keep our course the top choice in the region.”
