Established in 2008, the Grosse Pointe Woods Foundation is an independent, all-volunteer organization focused on projects to enhance our community for the benefit of residents, visitors, and businesses.
The grand opening of the Kevin J. Zmyslowski III (Tripp) Memorial Course took place on August 3, 2019. The Foundation officially gifted the 9-hole course to the city, and it is now open for play!
The city elected to charge $2 per game to play, with a “membership” package of eight games for $10.
June 3, 2019 official groundbreaking for the 9-hole mini golf course to be installed at Lake Front Park!
We are very grateful to the Zmyslowski family for their $25,000 signature sponsorship of the miniature golf course. Other major sponsors include A.H. Peters Funeral Home, Peter and Lisa Ahee, Edmund T. Ahee Jewelers, Mike and Lisa Fuller, Kevin and Barbara Hendrick, Douglas and Margaret Rahaim, and The Original Pancake House of Grosse Pointe.
The Foundation was pleased to provide funding to the Avenue in the Woods business association for the beautiful light post banners now displayed along Mack Avenue
The Foundation looks forward to engaging in additional collaborative efforts with the business association and the city to continue making Mack Avenue even more attractive for walking, biking, shopping and dining!
