From April 13th to 20th, Craigowan member Drew Symons competed in an International Mid-Am Tournament in Lima Peru at the Lima Golf Club.  Drew and Dave Bunker represented Ontario against teams from South America, Great Britain and the United States.  With the late start to our season at Craigowan, Drew had little time to prepare for this event.  In typical Symons style he finished in 17th place for the week.  Congratulations Drew great job!!!

After what seems like the longest winter of all time, the 2013 golf season at Craigowan will commence Monday April 22!!!! The golf course will open for tee time bookings at 9:00am on April 20th for the following 8 days.
Starting April 20^th at 9:00 am the restaurant will be open for the season. Please feel free to stop in and enjoy some breakfast, lunch or dinner in the Heritage Room.

Please remember it is extremely important to repair all ball marks on the greens and replace your divots on the course. Due to the wet conditions, please contact the Proshop to find out the status of the power carts.  

I look forward to seeing everyone out for their first round this season. Please consider bringing out a guest to experience our fantastic golf course and the services we provide in the Proshop and Clubhouse.

The entire team at Craigowan is anxious to get this season started and we would like to thank you for your patience. We are all looking forward to another fantastic golf season.

Cheers,

Adam
