==Recreation== The 18-hole public golf course runs through the center of Stansbury Park. It contains 14 lakes. All the [[par (score)|par]] 3 holes are over water and 16 of the holes have [[water hazard]]s. During the winter, Stansbury Park is often the only course open in the greater Salt Lake City area. The course has a clubhouse with food service, a [[pro shop]], putting green and [[driving range]]. The Harmon's astronomical observatory,<ref>In 2002 the [[Harmons]] grocery store chain made a substantial donation toward construction of the modern facility; thus in some literature the observatory is called The Harmon Observatory.</ref> the Stansbury Park Observing Complex, is at the north end near the skateboard park. The observatory boasts a 40 cm (16") Ealing reflector, an 81 cm (32") reflector and a 200 mm (8") refractor along with computerized tracking and CCD imaging capabilities. The facility is owned and operated by the Salt Lake Astronomical Society.<ref>[http://slas.us Salt Lake Astronomical Society website]</ref> In 2017 another building was erected north of the original complex buildings, to house the world's largest amateur-built reflector telescope.<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/UtahSPOC/posts/1413471568673482 Bauman, Joe. ''The Salt Lake Astronomical Society invites its members to a ground-breaking for the building that will house this planet’s largest amateur telescope, a behemoth with a mirror 70 inches in diameter and a frame 35 feet long. The informal session begins 5 p.m. on Saturday, 18 March 2017, at the group’s observatory in Stansbury Park, Tooele County.'']</ref>
