Outing Schedule ***New for 2008***:

Challenge the Pro Contest:
At hole 11 you’ll have the chance to challenge Cherry Valley’s own Club Pro, Allan Bowman.

This par 3 challenge is for you, or any member of your foursome, to get closer to the hole than the Pro with your first shot.  Here’s the interesting part, when you get to the tee box, your group can choose the club Allan has to use!  You’ll get to see firsthand how well the Club Pro can control his distance to the pin when you select his 5, 6, 7 or 8 iron.

Each member of your foursome can take their best shot (using any club of their own choice) and try to get closer to the hole than Allan.

Allan will note who had the best shots of the day, depending on the challenge he was given, and will present the top two golfers with prizes.

Club Rain Policy:
Cancellation of the outing due to inclement weather is at the sole discretion of Cherry Valley Country Club. If the outing is unable to be rescheduled by Cherry Valley Country Club, golfers will receive a full refund. 

Players’ Cancellation Policy:
Cherry Valley Country Club requires that DCAT provide a final count of golfers 1 week prior to the event.  Therefore, cancellations of an individual or a foursome must be received no later than 5:00 pm, Monday, July 7th, 2008, in order to receive a refund. After that date, refunds will only be made if replacement players are available (minus any processing fees).
