Founded in 1898, Evanston Golf Club is a private golf club on the Northshore, just off of Dempster Street and Skokie Boulevard. It has an 18-hole golf course and tennis and swimming facilities. Private golf outings are available to members and guests.
Part of the Skokie Park District, the Weber Park Golf Course is a beautiful 9-hole, par-3 course that anyone can afford, residents and non-residents alike. In addition, players can rent clubs ($2) and push carts ($3), and even hone their putting skills on the practice green. Discounts are given to senior citizens and juniors ages 8 to 15. The course is open throughout the spring and summer seasons and well into the fall, even on the 4th of July and Labor Day. Reservations are recommended for weekend tee-times.
The Weber Leisure Center has been opened since 1995 and is also home to the Skatium Ice Arena, Skokie's ice skating rink. Community members can utilize the Leisure Center's indoor track for free during normal business hours. The building also has a paid membership gym, large basketball/volleyball court, park golf course and is also home to various park district administrative personnel.
Located on the second floor of the Webber Leisure Center, the Skokie Park District office handles a variety of administrative work such as event planning, working with the media, filling and payroll.
Appointments are recommended as drop-by visits are uncommon. While not related to the day-to-day duties of the park district, there is a full sized skating rink, basketball court, fitness center and indoor track inside the same building.
