PARennial Golf

The Waveland Youth Facility, located adjacent to the Sydney R. Marovitz Golf Course in Chicago's Uptown Buena Park community, offers year-round access to free and low-cost programs for youth from diverse backgrounds. Officially opened in July 2022, the facility features a new clubhouse and a state-of-the-art short game area, designed with input from PGA TOUR player Luke Donald. This $2.2 million project, which includes a 1,200 square foot clubhouse and a full swing simulator, was developed by the Lamar Johnson Collaborative and Quitno Golf Designs, highlighting a commitment to innovative architecture and sustainable golf course design. The facility aims to provide exceptional learning and recreational opportunities for young golfers through programs and community outreach initiatives. Generated from the website

These nine holes of golf are all orientated parallel to the lake, offering unparalleled views of the water, multiple harbors, and the skyscrapers of downtown Chicago. Mature trees, an on-going renovation of the sand traps, and immaculate greens all offer a challenge to all skill levels. Reclaimed from the waters of Lake Michigan, this lakefront property opened in 1932 as Waveland Golf Course. Renamed in 1991 as Sydney R. Marovitz, this lakeside course is nestled between Lake Shore Drive and the shores of Lake Michigan.
