Weekly Events:

JUNIOR GOLF

 

 

 

Our golf club boasts a vibrant junior membership, thanks to our dedicated Pro Shop staff and the club members who come out to help out with golf instruction and etiquette.  The cost for this program is very low, especially considering the number and variety of lessons and playing events which our junior members enjoy.  Anyone interested in the Junior Program is invited to pick up a hand-out describing the program and its goals and requirements from the Pro Shop.

We are very proud of the fact that our Assistant Pro, Brian Rands, was honoured by the BCPGA as Junior Developer of the Year.  He is assisted by many of our members, and the program enjoys great sponsorship from a number of businesses in town.

BUSINESS LADIES

Tuesday Tee-Offs from 3:00 - 6:00pm 


Business Ladies Scrambles

Don’t let the name scare you away: all female golfers are invited to play in all of our Business Ladies’ events.

On regular play days, members and non-members alike can drop in any Tuesday from mid-afternoon on and head out for nine holes of golf.  A dollar a week entitles you to compete for year-end prizes for low gross average, low net average, most birdies, best attendance, and so on.  Each week there are two chances to win KP (closest to the pin) honours, and each time you have a KP you are automatically entered in the year-end chipping contest.  Wonderful  prizes and gift certificates make the year-end shoot out one of our most sought-after titles, so you’ll want to play regularly to give yourself the most chances to win.

Once a month through our regular season, the Business Ladies hold a scramble.  These are very popular events which feature 9 holes of scramble-style golf and great food.  Best of all, everyone is guaranteed a prize!
