                  CELEBRATING 100 YEARS OF SYLVAN GLEN

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. HALEY M. STEVENS

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 19, 2022

  Ms. STEVENS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 100th 
anniversary of Sylvan Glen Golf Course, a popular attraction for both 
locals and tourists in Troy, Michigan. Over the past century, Sylvan 
Glen solidified itself as a popular destination to make memories and 
connect with others over a game of golf or by participating in one its 
many events and activities. People of all generations come together to 
enjoy the beautiful greenery of Sylvan Glen, and I am proud to 
represent the district that encompasses this local landmark as the 
member of Congress for Michigan's 11th District.
  Opened in 1922, Sylvan Glen predates the designation of the City of 
Troy, offering unique insight into the earlier, natural state of the 
region. Just minutes from Detroit, Sylvan Glen serves as a reprieve for 
those looking to escape the city and spend time among the trees and 
wildlife over a game of golf. In addition, the course offers excellent 
cross-country skiing and sledding opportunities, bringing together 
members of the community from all backgrounds and interests to take 
advantage of Michigan outdoors.
  Madam Speaker, over the past 100 years, Sylvan Glen Golf Course has 
established itself as an essential fixture of the community. Many have 
come together to enjoy this local wonder, undoubtedly securing a 
special place in the hearts of thousands of residents in Michigan's 
11th District and greater Southeast Michigan. Please join me in 
honoring Sylvan Glen Golf Course upon its 100th year and in wishing 
Sylvan Glen continued success for many more years to come.
