Ashland Kids Turn Golf Club Hill Into Winter Wonderland

Ashland, OH – Tonight, the normally tranquil grounds of the Ashland Golf Club at 1333 Center St. transformed into a snowy playground filled with laughter, excitement, and the pure joy of winter. A few Families gathered at the hill, turning it into a sledding hotspot that made even the most nostalgic adults wistful for their childhoods.

Bundled in layers of coats, hats, and gloves, children of all ages took turns launching themselves down the hill, their delighted screams piercing the crisp evening air. Some braved the slope solo, while others teamed up, creating a flurry of colorful toboggins zooming downhill in groups. Though a few crashes and tumbles were inevitable, the smiles never wavered, and the fun only grew.

“I couldn’t help but think about the days when kids spent hours building snow ramps at the bottom of this very hill,” reminisced one observer. “Back then, it was all about seeing who could catch the most air. It’s heartwarming to see that same kind of joy alive today.”

While the kids soared down the hill, some stood by snapping photos, sharing laughs, and savoring the magical moment. As I was reflecting on the scene, I must admit, It made me wish I was a kid again… until I saw the wipeouts! I think I’ll stick to just taking pictures.”

This spontaneous evening of winter fun reminded everyone that, even in an age dominated by screens, nothing beats the thrill of a sled, a snowy hill, and the company of good friends.
