Member - Guest information

Our flagship event is now on the horizon, the Member/Guest!  This is a very special year as this event celebrates Riverlands 50th Anniversary. We have an outstanding schedule of events that you can see below.

We hope that everyone will consider playing if their schedule allows. There are some people who choose not to play for reasons like : "I don't have a chance to win" or "I'm not paying $175 to play my own course when I pay to belong"

We hope that people take the stance to play for the following reasons:

1. I am proud to be a member of Riverlands and to "show off" MY CLUB and COURSE to others. Be an ambassador for Riverlands!

2.  Our club needs tournaments like this in order to succeed.  I think all of us who know where Riverlands is at financially can appreciate the boost an event like this brings to the club.

3. Spend quality time with a friend that you don't normally get to play with.  There are many people we do not normally get to play with for 3 straight days.

4. A great value for $350 per team. I could write a novel here, however look at the list below and you will see what we mean.
