Cole Park features an 18-hole championship course spanning over 350 acres that was built in 1947 [1](https://campbell.armymwr.com/programs/cole-park-golf-course#:~:text=Built%20in%201947,350%20acres). The first eleven holes are characterized by dramatic changes in elevation, while the final seven holes are set on flatter terrain [1](https://campbell.armymwr.com/programs/cole-park-golf-course#:~:text=changes%20in%20elevation,flat%20terrain). The course uses bent grass greens and Bermuda fairways and is open to soldiers, retirees, and the general community [1](https://campbell.armymwr.com/programs/cole-park-golf-course#:~:text=Bent%20Grass%20greens,community).

Paxton Park opened in 1940 as a Works Progress Administration project during the Great Depression [2](https://www.kygolf.org/championships/mid-am/content/a-look-at-paxton-park-golf-course#:~:text=opened%20for%20play%20in%201940,Great%20Depression). Designed by George Davies, the 18-hole course features three large lakes that provide water hazards on seven holes [1](https://www.paxtonpark.com/#:~:text=George%20Davies,seven%20holes). The greens were updated to Champion ultradwarf Bermuda in 2012 for improved quality and heat tolerance [2](https://www.kygolf.org/championships/mid-am/content/a-look-at-paxton-park-golf-course#:~:text=2012,heat%20tolerance).
