Fort Smith Fayetteville Springdale Rogers, AR, October 28, 2026 —
The Justice Department has confirmed that plans are in motion to renovate and close the East Potomac Golf Course starting November 15. The information provided does not specify a year for that date.
The confirmation establishes that both renovation work and a closure are planned, but it does not explain the project’s scope or how the closure will be carried out. No details were provided about the expected duration, the areas or facilities affected, or whether the closure will apply to the entire course.
The information also does not identify the contractor, describe the work, or state the project’s cost. It provides no details about permits, inspections, or any anticipated effects on golfers or other visitors. Those matters remain unspecified in the available summary and cannot be confirmed from the announcement details provided.
The timing is the only schedule detail stated: the renovation and closure are set to start November 15. The Justice Department’s confirmation does not, on its own, provide a reopening date or a timeline for completing the work. No additional statements or explanations were included.
For now, the confirmed information is limited to the department’s confirmation that plans are underway and that work and closure are scheduled to begin on November 15. Further details about the project, its duration, and the course’s operating arrangements were not provided.
