The new Sterling Grove Golf and Country Club will be opening their Nicklaus Design, 18-hole course for a limited public preview starting Feb. 11. The course will be going private at a later time. For more information, please contact the Golf Shop at 623-213-7000.
Road Closure
Sarival Avenue will be closed from Custer Lane to Greenway Road from February 1 until March 1. Sarival Avenue will remain accessible from Waddell Road for local traffic only. This work is being performed as a part of the Greenway Road improvement project that will finish the south half of Greenway Road from 800 feet west of Loop 303 to 1,600 feet east of Loop 303 (approximately Cotton Lane to Sarival Avenue). For more information on this road project, please visit surpriseaz.gov/decidesurprise.
Spring Training
Spring Training 2021 is scheduled to begin on February 27, however, the Cactus League would prefer to delay Spring Training for a month. The hope is that a delay would allow more time for people to get vaccinated and to hopefully see a decline in new COVID cases. No decision has been made about changing the February 27th start of the season. Right now, the Texas Rangers are set to take on the Kansas City Royals on February 27 at 1:05 p.m. For a complete schedule of games and updated information on ticket sales and safety protocols, please visit SurpriseStadium.com or call 623-222-2222. Due to the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, the Spring Training Schedule and information is subject to change.
Holiday Sanitation Schedule
City offices are closed February 15 in observance of Presidents Day’. Please note that the holiday sanitation schedule will be in effect.
