located in the Greene Valley and is adjacent to the west to Prentiss Creek.
Prentiss Creek and the East Branch of the DuPage River meet under the bridge
at Hobson Road and continue to flow several miles to meet the West Branch of the
DuPage River. In theory, we could canoe from here to the Gulf of Mexico.
Seven Bridges Golf Course is a public course owned by the Village of
Woodridge and run by a management company. The golf course was formerly
two (2) public courses: the Meadows and the Woods. It originally opened in
the 1930 s. Seven Bridges Golf Course was built in 1990. To the south of
Hobson Road is the Greene Valley Forest Preserve that extends approximately
three (3) miles. To the East of the river was once a sod farm and the
Northeast corner of 75th street and Greene Road was a polo field.
Just Southeast of us near 71st Street and Hobson was the site of a
battle of Pottawatomie Indians and settlers in the 1800 s. This area became a
burial ground and is now owned by the Girl Scouts who operate a camp there. The Courts is a town home community
of 20 homes on Brassie Court and 26 on Mashie Court. The common area is
bounded by the wood fence on the North, the brick walls at the East and South
ends and by the East edge of the nature path along the river. The nature path
and area immediately outside the walls is owned and maintained by the Common Area Maintenance Association (CAM). Part
of our monthly assessment goes to the CAM maintenance fund. Seven Bridges
Golf Course owns the naturalized area west of the nature path. The Courts are
designated as a planned unit development (PUD). Seven Bridges Courts Association (SBCA) The Board of Directors,
whose seven members are elected by the unit owners every September, conducts
the day-to-day association business. The Directors meet as needed, usually

informed of current matters, the association publishes a newsletter as often
as needed to all residents. Your copy will be emailed to you. Please read the
