ICYMI: December 18, 2025 – National Links Trust could be in trouble
Thanks to B. for passing on the sad update from National Links Trust:
“Dear Friends of National Links Trust,
As supporters of the National Links Trust, our community programming, and our ongoing efforts to rehabilitate DC’s three municipal golf courses, we wanted to update you on recent developments around the National Links Trust stewardship of East Potomac, Langston, and Rock Creek.
We are devastated to report that the Trump administration is officially terminating our 50-year lease with the National Park Service to manage and renovate the three courses. We remain in fundamental disagreement with the administration’s characterization of NLT as being in default under the lease.

The termination is effective immediately. (more…)

This AM I was walking two dogs when one slipped out of his harness and proceeded to run away. I left the second dog behind and gave chase.
