The Green at Grant Park is an 18-hole garden Putting Course designed to maintain the traditions and integrity of the game of golf. It is our mission to make an appreciation of world-class golf accessible to everyone, from seasoned players, to helping facilitate programs centered on teaching children who might not ordinarily gain exposure to the game. The Green at Grant Park is also committed to the promotion & maintenance of a healthy natural environment. We recognize our responsibility as a member of the Grant Park community, and are dedicated to protecting the natural resources the Park offers the City of Chicago and it's citizens. Because golf, at it's best, is so completely dependent upon it's natural setting, it is our passion for the game that will ensure that our course will not only meet, but exceed Park District and civic expectations.
