Last year, a late evening fire started in the storage area of the Pico Rivera Golf Club. The fire was contained to the storage area of the Golf Club’s Pro Shop and Banquet facility. Luckily, no injuries were reported, and structural damage was minimal with smoke damage reported throughout the facility. Immediately following the fire, City crews worked to preserve the remaining structure to prevent further damage or vandalism.
Since then, the Pro Shop and the restaurant portion of the bar had to adjust daily operations while portions of the facility were closed due to the damage. While there was no damage to the banquet facility, the banquet facility was closed for approximately a month, and there was no phone communication for a while due to the extensive damage done to the phone equipment.
Fast forward to a year later, construction has been taking place at the Pro Shop and the facility may resume full operation later this Spring. Repairs to the damaged facility include removal and reframing of damaged wooden posts, beams, sheathing, replacement of drywall, windows, doors, flooring and roofing; painting walls and ceilings, application of epoxy floor system; replacement of electrical panels, conduits, wires, HVAC unit and ducting. City officials anticipate repairs to be completed next month.
The Golf Club is open daily from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. The Driving Range is also open daily, with no club or driver restrictions.
