CELEBRATING 100 YEARS OF SYLVAN GLEN
______

Tuesday, July 19, 2022
Ms. STEVENS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 100th anniversary of Sylvan Glen Golf Course, a popular attraction for both locals and tourists in Troy, Michigan. Over the past century, Sylvan Glen solidified itself as a popular destination to make memories and connect with others over a game of golf or by participating in one its many events and activities. People of all generations come together to enjoy the beautiful greenery of Sylvan Glen, and I am proud to represent the district that encompasses this local landmark as the member of Congress for Michigan's 11th District.
Opened in 1922, Sylvan Glen predates the designation of the City of Troy, offering unique insight into the earlier, natural state of the region. Just minutes from Detroit, Sylvan Glen serves as a reprieve for those looking to escape the city and spend time among the trees and wildlife over a game of golf. In addition, the course offers excellent cross-country skiing and sledding opportunities, bringing together members of the community from all backgrounds and interests to take advantage of Michigan outdoors.
Madam Speaker, over the past 100 years, Sylvan Glen Golf Course has established itself as an essential fixture of the community. Many have come together to enjoy this local wonder, undoubtedly securing a special place in the hearts of thousands of residents in Michigan's 11th District and greater Southeast Michigan. Please join me in honoring Sylvan Glen Golf Course upon its 100th year and in wishing Sylvan Glen continued success for many more years to come.
