VIENNA, Virginia – March 10, 2005 – Billy Casper Golf (“BCG”) and Hudson Hills Golf Course has announced that the Mark Mungeam designed course in Westchester County, New York will begin accepting applications for the E-Z Reserve tee-time reservation system and assigning tee-times for the 2005 season.
Assignments began on Saturday, March 12 for Saturday tee-times, and Sunday, March 13 for Sunday tee-times, starting at 8 a.m. on both days. The E-Z Reserve program enables golfers to block out a designated tee-time for most of the season on Saturdays or Sundays. The number of blocked tee-times is limited and only one will be sold to a customer. Only golfers with a Westchester County Park Pass may make an E-Z Reserve reservation at this time.
Tee times begin Saturday, April 16 and run through Sunday, October 2. An E-Z Reserve fee of $250 per player is due when tee times are assigned. Greens fees for Hudson Hills and the five other Westchester County owned courses can be paid at check-in each week. Payments can be made with cash, check, Visa, MasterCard or American Express.

About Hudson Hills Golf Club
Cut from 150 acres of rolling terrain along the Hudson River, Hudson Hills is the sixth Westchester County-owned golf course and the first to open in more than 50 years. Designed by renowned golf course architect Mark Mungeam of Cornish, Silva and Mungeam, Inc., the par-71 championship layout spans roughly 7,000 yards and is already being heralded as one of the finest modern designs in the tri-state area.
Opening on April 20, Hudson Hills occupies the site of the former Hudson Hills Country Club, which operated between 1926 and 1984. The land was purchased by IBM in 1984 and then sold to Westchester County in 1997 for $3.64 million. The County, along with Mungeam, has crafted the ultimate public golf experience, providing a combination of stunning vistas and challenging golf holes that meander through the historic countryside.
Featuring four sets of tees, strategic bunkering and elevation changes, Hudson Hills is designed to present an enjoyable, exciting and challenging golf experience to players of all abilities.
