The UMNGC has set a full schedule this year and is allowing guests to play in a handful of events throughout the season to show off our great club. Golf Course Superintendent Brent Belanger has really done a terrific job with the course conditions the last couple years and we're seeing the benefits of the green covers with how quickly the course recovers after winter. We have had some very loyal golfers the past couple seasons and it'd be great to see our club grow by a few members in 2024.
The membership application is live for 2024 so please fill out the google form with your details and follow through with payment instructions. One thing you may notice is that the club is transitioning to Stripe as the main payment option. You will be able to use your credit card to register for events. This transition will simplify processing entry fees and hopefully make the financial side of the club cleaner.
If you pay for an MGA Adult Associate Membership at more than one Minnesota golf club, then be sure you are issued the same GHIN number at each club and please go to this link: https://www.mngolf.org/rebate to receive a rebate of $16.00 for each membership beyond your first one.
Our complete schedule is listed below. Back this year is the wild card spot for the shootout, which is intended to create some additional interest in our team events (Lone Ranger, Chapman, 6-6-6 and Ryder Cup).
Feel free to reach out to your board members if you have any questions about the club.
