Warwick Hills and the Buick Open

The Buick Open golf tournament began in 1958 at the Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club. Located in Grand Blanc, 50,000 fans came to see Billy Casper win the $52.000 purse. In 2009, the last year it was played here, the purse was over five million dollars. You will recognize so many winners from the Buick Open Champions Circle: Julius Boros, Tom Weiskopf, Hale Irwin, Lanny Wadkins, Ben Crenshaw, Fred Couples, Vijay Singh and Tiger Woods are just a few. The grounds of this private golf course are beautifully maintained.

Trillium NCG Cinema and Imax in Grand Blanc

Movie lovers enjoy Grand Blanc's NCG Trillium Cinema complex. The Imax Theatre only costs $12.  There are free refills on pop and popcorn. MatinĂ©e showings before 6pm are just five dollars. Their comfy seats have some sort of memory foam that you just meld into. They also have a free movie card.  When you buy ten movies the next one is free. Open about six years now, we think the exterior has a cool art deco Hollywoodesque look.
