The Freeport Parks Foundation is honored to help bring the Buck Stout Gazebo to Park Hills Golf Course.

This meaningful addition pays tribute to the late Clifford “Buck” Stout — a lifelong golfer and passionate supporter of Park Hills Golf Course. Through the generosity of the Stout family, we were able to coordinate the build to celebrate Buck’s legacy.

At the recent dedication, members of the Stout family shared heartfelt words and favorite stories of Buck’s time at Park Hills, reminding us all of his deep love for the game and this course.

Here’s to Buck, forever golfing heaven’s fairway.
