Broadmoor Mountain Course in Colorado Springs, Colo. Has retained its designation as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary through the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf Courses (ACSP), an Audubon International program.

To reach certification, course personnel demonstrate that they are maintaining a high degree of environmental quality in: environmental planning, wildlife and habitat management, outreach and education, chemical use reduction and safety, water conservation and water quality management.

Twenty years after its creation, the ACSP continues to promote ecologically sound land management and conservation of natural resources on golf courses. Many golf courses are registered in the ACSP because it is considered “the right thing to do,” but there is also a strong business case for voluntary environmental action.
