๐ŸŒง๏ธ Country View Golf Course Closed Today ๐ŸŒง๏ธ

Due to significant rainfall and flooding conditions, Country View Golf Course will be closed today, Sunday, June 7, 2026, for the safety of our guests and staff.

As additional rain is expected throughout the day, residents are urged to use caution while traveling. Roadways may experience high water or flooding with little warning.

๐Ÿšง Remember: Turn Around, Donโ€™t Drown. Never drive through flooded streets. Just a few inches of moving water can sweep a vehicle off the roadway, and it is often impossible to determine the depth of water covering a road.

Please continue to monitor local weather conditions and allow extra time for travel if you must be on the roads.

Stay safe, Lancaster. ๐Ÿ’™
