Sherwood Forest Golf and Country Club celebrates a half century
On Saturday, Sherwood Forest Golf and Country Club celebrated 50 years in operation. (Jacob Carr / CTV News) Since 1975, when Sherwood Forest Golf and Country Club became incorporated, it has been growing and expanding. The property now boasts a pool, a putting green, a nine-hole golf course, and plans for a pickleball court are in place. On Saturday, the club celebrated its 50th anniversary. The property was originally owned by three firemen, so in honour of that history, a fire truck from the Pense Fire Department was brought on for display, which was a big hit among the children in attendance. According to its vice president Valerie Senger, children and families are a big part of Sherwood Forest. 'A big part of our club is families, so we wanted to have a kids day to celebrate and thank the members as well,' she said. The event was packed with plenty of family-friendly activities: tug-of-war, a bouncy house, three-legged races, and potato sack races. After all that activity, families could treat themselves to a hot dog, hamburger, or a sweet treat, like candy floss or candy apples.
