Raccoon Creek Player’s Club Concept

The Raccoon Creek Players Club is a competitive and social golf organization that plays a season-long event schedule. Events run from April through October. There are individual and team events. Some team events are assigned partners (paired) and others are pick your own partner (PYOP). Events are primarily on Sunday mornings. See schedule of events for complete details.

 

Governance and Fees

Current Board members are Ken Funderberg, Joe Brady, Gary Schopp, Clint Wojtowicz and Steve Grantowitz and Kevin Monks. Professionals Don Graham and Don Allen are ornery Board Members.
