The Sligo Creek Golf Association (SCGA) is a coalition of golfers, environmentalists, civic leaders, and neighbors dedicated to preserving and protecting Sligo Creek Golf Course as a nine-hole golf course and community asset. The course offers a full range of amenities, including a pro shop, lessons, and a full-service bar/restaurant —The Squirrel Shack— a family-friendly establishment offering great food and drinks. Dine inside or at the outside picnic tables. There’s plenty of shade. By the first tee is the new Sligo Sound Stage that hosts Tuesday Night Music in the spring and Friday Night Music from June through October.

Opposition to the Beltway Expansion
SCGA is a supporting member of Citizens Against Beltway Expansion, a nonprofit coalition of civic associations, taxpayers, and other organizations demanding better, affordable commuter options for suburban Maryland. CABE opposes plans by Maryland officials to add toll lanes to I-495 and I-270 in Montgomery County.
The expansion of the Beltway threatens Sligo Creek Golf Course because the added toll lanes will cut into Holes 3 & 4. If you’d like more information on this issue, send an email to our Board President.
