According to the starter at Whispering Creek GC today, the Lakeside Golf Course complex was sold to the city in late 2018 to control the "Flooding" that has been happening in that area. This course was the first one designed by local resident Robert Beard (14 others) and his son Bud Beard was co-owner here when the last flood of 2018 made the final decision to close it down. Being a popular/inexpensive place to play was not the problem BUT the cost of downtime/repairs between floods was the final nail in the coffin.
