Mahwah NJ, Bergen County Executive Jim Tedesco is excited to announce that construction has officially started on the highly anticipated Darlington Golf Course driving range renovation. Over the past several weeks crews have been working to take down the old and weathered wooden support poles at the range. Early next year, they will be replaced with much larger 150 foot modern steel poles that will support a much thicker and high strength polyester breakaway netting system. Once complete the new system will allow the range to endure intense weather conditions and further extend play time for golfers at the range. The Parks Department is anticipating the range to re-open in late spring next year. This investment once again furthers our goal of offering golf enthusiasts of all abilities a country club experience at public course prices.
