Leslie Park's commitment to the environment and our role within the City has reached a pinnacle in 2012 when we became the third course in the State of Michigan to become environmentally certified by both The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program and Michigan Environmental Stewardship Program.
The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf Courses provides an advisory service to help golf courses develop effective conservation and wildlife enhancement programs. This worldwide effort is coordinated by Audubon International and is sponsored in part by the United States Golf Association.
Audubon International is an environmental organization dedicated to educating, assisting, and inspiring millions of people from all walks of life to protect and sustain the land, water, wildlife, and natural resources around them. In addition to businesses, Audubon International also provides programs for golf courses, schools, communities, and new developments.

Michigan Turfgrass Environmental Stewardship certification requires the course to exceed requirements of environmental laws, protect water resources and enhance the maintenance of turfgrass and open spaces.

- To clearly identify environmental laws and regulations and advance the compliance of the golf turf industry;
