Want to have fun playing Golf and go home with a bunch of swag?

You’ve been asking us for the last year “When is Golf Today Magazine going to put on a golf tournament?” Well, I’m pleased and excited to say we’ve listened and responded. Yes, our 23 year old West Coast edition has been “putting on” their own golf “fun events” for over 15 years having held over 70 such events that are famous for providing California golfers with a great days golfing and going home with “goodys” and prizes that are matched by none other.

Now it’s the Northwest Edition’s turn to provide Northwest golfers with the same combination of challenging golf, great prizes, and great food!

Welcome to 2010 Heron Lakes Golf Classic, a one-day, play your own ball, “fun event” Monday, April 26 at Heron lakes Golf Course, Great Blue Course. You may be familiar with Portland’s popular “muni” including The Great Blue Course, which is a favorite challenge among low handicap golfers and high handicappers alike. The 6,902 yard Robert Trent Jones II course’s fairways typifies Scottish-style mounds and offers golfers a collection of risk/reward holes that will test your course management skills to the core!

So what makes our events different? Golf Today Magazine’s “Fun Tournaments” are open to men and women players of all abilities. Yes, you do not need to have a handicap and all players regardless of their score will take home more than $100 in their Tee Prize Package “goody” bags PLUS raffle gifts!

Hood National Forest.
