Roseville Parksand Recreation is eager to submitthe Cedarholm Community Building Programs & Events transformation for consideration in the Excellence in Category for the 2019 MRPA Award of Excellence. Roseville Cedarholm Community Building & Golf Course is a unique facility holding a 9-hole golf course, new Cart Storage Facility, Grounds Maintenance Facility and a new 4800 sq/ft Community Building. The Community Building has a cozy pro-shop, golf service counter, bar area, state of the art catering kitchen and a 120-person banquet room. The Community building was finished in June of 2018 and replaced an outdated golf clubhouse that was built in the 1950’s. The Cedarholm Community Building project was a Park & Facilities Award of Excellence winner in 2017 because it was community driven and aligned with the complete identified selection criterion. Project Description: The New Cedarholm Community Building & Golf Course has a long lineage of golf history and private building rentals. Our new program and event space is now able to host over 200 private and affiliated group rentals per year. Our Golf Course is heavily used from April to October. Over 750 youth, adult and senior members join our weekly leagues and programs. How do we utilize our facility for the full 12-months of the year and remove the “Golf Only” Stigma from our name? What members of the community are we missing and how do we get them to enjoy this new facility? The old golf adage expressing the need for slacks and a tucked in collared shirt needs to be made optional. Let us start by identifying what our facility and resources can accommodate. Our golf course has tons of open space that is covered in snow, our rental room allows us to host large events, our kitchen can serve refreshments at events efficiently and we have an attractive facility. After realizing what we could accommodate, we needed to remove the old traditional golf course model that turns down the heat and locks its doors when the snow flies. How can we attract additional community members here in the winter? What does the community want to do in our facility? We then applied the communities input with our facilities capabilities to develop a unique set of enhanced programs and events. This is how we transformed our new mindset from golfers only to year round program & event space. Planning Process: Cedarholm Building Project | 11/2014 to 06/2018 Due to increasing capital needs, and the fact that the clubhouse facility was becoming more functionally obsolete, the Roseville City Council and the Parks and Recreation Commission began talking about clubhouse needs in November 2014. The council directed Commissioners to work with staff to review current and future operations, as well as capital needs of the Golf course and provide recommendations.
