3rd Annual Captains' Event Tuesday, May 12, 2009
Our 9th Annual at Barrington on August 18, 2008 was a huge success due to the generous support of those who sponsored golfers. We want to treat and salute those who sponsored a foursome and induct you into our Annual Benefit Captains' Hall.
The Directors of the Board of The First Tee of Cleveland wish to express our gratitude to each Captain with an invitation for complimentary golf and a reception to follow.
Playing the Leonard Krieger golf course will be a special thrill and worthy test. It was designed by IMG's Brit Stenson and features splendid topography incorporating wetlands, lakes, bunkers and beautiful, undulating freens. The facility also features a full length driving range, a very large practice putting green and a bunker / chipping practice area. |
