LARGA General
Information
We currently have most of a schedule set
for 2025. The first event is May 5 at
Widder Station. The schedule can be
found using the menu bar.
Like last year, the cost varies from course
to course but includes the cart and taxes.
The tee time also varies. At the time of
writing, all dates are either a Monday or a
Tuesday.
The process for arranging a tee time will
be the same as last year except for the
first event. When you attend an event, you
can sign up the next 2-3 events. Note that
payment is also expected by cheque
(preferred) or cash. Your tee time on the
tee sheet will be marked to indicate
payment.
PROCEDURE FOR EVENT 1 (Widder):
To avoid the chaos of registering at
Widder, there will be an earlier opportunity
to register for the first few events on April
22 at Camlachie from 9 to 12 noon. You
can pay for your golf event(s) and
membership fee ($20). Please note that
there is no golf organized by LARGA for
April 22nd. Feel free to book your own
round. Bruce Houtby will be there to help
answer questions.
Postdating a cheque to a week before the
event is fine. One cheque can pay for
multiple people.
In general, we are expecting that a golfer
will be prepaid for 2 weeks in advance.
This is because Golf North and a few other
courses demand we supply numbers and
names 14 days prior to our event. Adding
names to the event with less than 14 days
to go is a problem.
It might be possible for a member without
a tee time to still show at an event, pay,
and play if tee times are available but this
practice is discouraged as we certainly
can't guarantee you can play.
People wishing to join LARGA for the first
time can show up early to any course with
questions. They can also call/text Lorne
Bourries at 519-402-1636 for information.
LARGA will try to place singles with groups
with 2-3 players. Anyone missing 2
consecutive weeks should show up early
at the next event to get what tee times are
available (if any).
General Rules
1. Members must be 50 years plus and
retired.
2. A non-member may play as a guest,
once in a season.
3. On rainy days, members must attend to
obtain a rain check from the Club
Pro/owner. The member shall be
responsible for making playing
arrangements at a later date at that club.
The rain check is not valid for any other
LARGA Association play.
4. If you have matters that concern
LARGA contact an Executive member
about the issue.
Thank You and Have a Great Year.
