                                                     Outdoor Activities

                   Whether you walk, bike, drive, or take the tram, come where the out-

                   door action begins at Freedom Plaza.

                   Do you want to play, or have you wanted to play, golf? Turn in at the

                   Freedom Fairways (Figure 13 page 37)  sign. The Golf Shop with outdoor
                   tables and chairs is on the left, and on the right a building housing the
                   landscaping and golf course maintenance function, rental golf carts, and

                   member’s golf club storage. There is also a cage for hitting golf balls and
                   a  practice  putting  green  where  you  can  enjoy  sharpening  your  short
                   game skills.


                   The  building  housing  the  Golf  Shop  also  houses  the  Plaza  Club  where
                   many  social  activities  are  scheduled  for  residents  and  outside  groups.
                   The Plaza Club may be reserved by calling Dining Services (642-1267).


                   Moving north on American Eagle Boulevard, you will see hole #18 of the

                   golf course on the left and on the right, a glimpse of the Golfview Terrace
                   buildings. Taking the first street to the right, Freedom Plaza Circle, vari-
                   ous sports facilities will appear: a basketball hoop, two horseshoe courts,

                   two covered shuffleboard courts with benches, a bocce court, two pickle-
                   ball courts, and two tennis courts.


                   The  shuffleboard  courts  have  equipment  that  is  stored  in  a  small,  un-
                   locked shed available to all. The bocce ball equipment is kept in a black,
                   unlocked box adjacent to the court. The pickleball equipment is kept in
                   an unlocked chest inside the fence between courts 1 and 2.  There are

                   two  basketballs  that  are  stored  in  the  GVT  fitness  center.    The  tennis
                   courts are locked and the key is available to all residents by calling the
                   Director of Golf and Tennis (634-7966) or the Front Desk.


                   These  facilities  are  available  to  all  residents  and  their  guests  free  of
                   charge.
