Coronavirus Uppost_date: Oyster Bay muni open, Cedars sells first tee time

While New York State, Nassau County and Suffolk County municipal golf courses remain closed, along with other city- and town-owned courses around Long Island, the Town of Oyster Bay will reopen its 18-hole muni in Woodbury today, weather permitting.

First tee time at Oyster Bay will be 7:00 a.m.; twilight rates will be offered from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. 

IMG_4384Cedars Golf Club, the little nine-hole course tucked away in a residential area of Cutchogue on the North Fork, will reopen Saturday.  Of note there is that in order to conform to the state's social-distancing regulations, Cedars is selling tee times for the first time in its 55-year history, according to co-owner Tim McManus.  The course opened in 1965, though some of the grounds have been a part of Cutchogue-area golf as far back as the 1920s.

As for the state and county munis, there are no reopening dates as of yet.  According to a recent Newsday article, Suffolk County is following the lead of New York State as far as reopening its courses.
