Upcoming Classic Club charity golf tournaments
F
or those spending the holiday sea-
son in the Coachella Valley, there's
little question that part of their visit will
include time on the golf course.
With that in mind, Classic Club will
continue a decade-long tradition and
host 8:30 a.m. holiday shotguns on
Thanksgiving and New Year's Day, and
possibly Christmas. There will also be
one on Super Bowl Sunday. While the
events aren't tournaments, the shotgun
format allows a large number of golfers
to play the course early so they can get
their golf fix before they move on to
other holiday gatherings.
"We see it as an opportunity for peo-
ple to enjoy a round of golf with family
on the holidays and still have the rest of
the day to do whatever they like," said
Head Golf Professional Dawson Hess.
"Especially with Thanksgiving, when you
eat later in the day, you can be done
with golf by 1:30 p.m. and then you can
enjoy family time at home."
The Thanksgiving and Super Bowl
shotguns are expected to max out at
120 players, so golfers are encouraged
to reserve their spots soon. Green fees
are the regular rates for the time of year,
and resident rates apply just as they
would any other day.
