Exciting news for The Tradition Golf Classic

Quick Links
Greetings! 
This newsletter is all about our 2012 Tradition Golf Classic....the most important fundraising event on our annual calendar. This year marks the 25th annual tournament and we hope you will be there! 
Our Old Golfer 

This year the Tradition Golf Classic is being hosted by Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club and is partnering with the Vancouver Golf Tour to become a Pro Am.
It is a wonderful opportunity for the amateurs who support the BC Golf House to experience playing with one of the top thirty professionals in BC. The format will see each foursome paired with a professional. The low three net scores will count for the team and the professional's score can be one of the three. In addition the professionals will be playing for a $9000 purse.

When and Where
In 2012 the 25th annual Tradition Golf Classic - Vancouver, the most important fundraiser each year for the BC Golf House Society is going to be held at Shaughnessy Golf & Country Club, one of Vancouver's most prestigious golf clubs, .
Monday May 28th is the date so be sure to get your foursome together and enter, or enter as a single, twosome or threesome, because the event will surely sell out.
