Video: Save Lions Municipal Golf Course
/The University of Texas has plans to bulldoze and develop the historic, important Lions Municipal course in Austin.
With the WGC Match Play set to play out at a lush country club course surrounded by high-end real estate and three-story corporate tents, there's something very unsettling knowing that a historically important muni, urban green space and starting point for Austin golfers is doomed. Especially since UT-Austin has the largest university endowment in America.
Here's a good film on the course. And a reminder, as I noted in the Forward Press, the Criquet gang hosts a fundraiser Friday to help raise money for the fight.
