Interesting layout.
Front is pretty tight, back fairly open. Tee nieces can use some work. Greens were good. Nice surprise for a first experience.

Another Good Day at Forest Park
It's nice to have a place that's open so early and is so accomodating. Tee markers are in now and all greens are open and playing moderate.
