The Men's and Women's Golf Club are proceeding with the issue of initiating a Sun Lakes Hall of Fame. It's true that both of the two largest golf clubs here in the community support this idea, but we have had detractors from the other clubs that mostly play the Executive course. How they feel that establishing a Sun Lakes Hall of Fame award and enclosure close to the Championship Golf Course's Main Pro Shop can possibly detract from what is done on the Executive side is a mystery. However, everyone is entitled to their opinion; it's just that it well may be that the Men's Golf Club and the Women's Golf Club will have take the forefront in pressing forward with this concept. Both golf clubs will continue to secure the recommendation from the full GAC before it can be forwarded onto the Master Board. We will keep everyone posted as we proceed with this important issue. Men's Club Sweepstakes Golf Tournament is scheduled for April 22- 23 with an 8 am shotgun start each day. A pairings party is scheduled for Wed., April 20 at 5 pm . ABCD teams will be drawn at this time. Pari-Mutual waging will be available. Cost of the event is $45. Executive Men's Golf Men's Golf Women's Golf In addition to the eight major tournaments that the club has planned, club members also have the opportunity to play in a variety of weekly golf games.
