you map out a good strategy to

ties. Detail timelines to keep

group events and tournaments because
it offers the whole package, from cater-
ing and merchandise credits to bever-
age cart service and customized contest
signage. The Course can even arrange
to set up a mobile pro shop with a
client's favorite golf merchandise, so
guests can peruse and shop in between
event happenings.
"We have one of the top courses in
the state and the country, Wente Vine-
yards is one of the longest-owned fam-
ily vineyards, and we have award-
winning catering onsite through The
Restaurant," said Jones. "Groups of all
sizes can pick and choose which serv-
ices of ours they'd like to use based on
their budget and event goals, and we
can work with them to achieve those
goals. It really is a one-stop shop."
The Course at Wente Vineyards has
extensive experience hosting events of
all types and sizes. Groups gathering
for family reunions and bachelor par-
ties of even 10 people can enjoy a fun
day on the course followed by an inti-
mate dinner, and corporate groups and
charities of up to 1,000 people can host
a large-scale tournament with exquisite
catering to match.
Jones recommends that no matter the
size and scope of an event, group and
tournament organizers should first de-
cide on their budget and priorities.
"Once guests have decided on a
budget and determined what their
event priorities are going to be – from
raising money or just having fun to ap-
preciating clients and vendors – we can
help them meet their goals," he said.
