Updated locations

Lakewood Shores

Lakewood Shores is SOLD OUT for June 1-3. They are available Memorial Day Weekend or Fathers Days weekend. They do have two-bedroom condos that are on one of the courses. For those interested, they have a special going on for the first three weekend of April . . . $135 Unlimited golf for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, including two nights lodging.

A-Ga-Ming.

I have tentatively booked 4 two-bedroom condos that can sleep 16 guys. The condos are brand new. . they are very similar to the ones from last year with decks overlooking the golf courses and grills etc. . . . The rate is $221 for tow rounds and two night. We can play saturday afternoon 9 holes for $15 on the Torch Lake Course or $25 on the Sundance Course. They can also offer a Cookout Dinner with Hamburgers and Brats for $10 per person (maybe a good idea for saturday night).

Otsego

They have condos and ok deals. They were available the weekend of June 1-3. They have a 54 hole package with lodging in hotel rooms and dinner for $254


So far looks like A-Ga-Ming is the best deal with the best lodging.

I will call Boyne, Shanty Creek, and Treetops in the nect couple days to get more details.

Coptic Ryder Cup Dates:

I hope to use this Blog as a way to provide updates, get opinions, post pics, finalizing schedules, etc. . . but mostly to trash talk. Andy, try and explain to Juju that the 4th of July is celebrated on the 4th day of July NOT THE FIRST DAY OF JULY. You may have to use pictures. HAHA

The tentative dates for the Third Annual Coptic Ryder Cup have been established.We have scheduled it for June 1-3, 2007. The purpose of pushing it back was to get some better conditions. It is no fun playing in a cold rain. Also the tournament will start on Friday afternoon not Saturday. We will have 9 holes on Friday afternoon (5ish) and 18 holes on Saturday and sunday. An optional 9 holes on saturday afternoon is also being discussed.

The location is tentatively Lakewood Shores Resort www.lakewoodshores.com. I have also looked at A-Ga-Ming, www.a-ga-ming.com, Shanty Creek www.shantycreek.com, Treetops www.treetops.com, Otsego club www.otsegoclub.com and Boyne www.boyne.com

A-Ga-Ming appears to be the best price option and Lakewood Shores is the shortest drive.

Please provide comments and opinions.
