Background

Colonial Acres Golf Course, designed by James Michaels and established in
1964, has been a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary since 1998 under the
leadership and guidance of Course Superintendent Pat Blum. It has been
recognized by environmental groups for its water conservation, waste reduction
and plant and wildlife management. In 2000, Colonial Acres won the New York
State Governor’s Award for Pollution Prevention in the small business
category.
In 2002, the course was presented with an Environmental Leaders in Golf Award
by Golf Digest magazine for its innovative efforts to reduce the use of water,
pesticides and the production of waste. And in 2006,
Colonial Acres earned the Environmental Protection Agency’s National
Environmental Performance Track Outreach Award.
The Open Space Conservancy (OSC), the land acquisition affiliate of the Open Space Institute,
leases the national award winning and Audubon certified nine-hole course to the town for $1 per
year. The Town of Bethlehem Parks and Recreation
Department now operates the course.
