Okay guys rather than doing this through pm's let have a place to clear everything up. I know a few of you guys don't post often but lets try to get something set up.

So far RenRen and TedFroop are in Wpoz is questionable and I'm in. If anyone else from Saskatchewan, Alberta, BC or anywhere else want to join in I hope you add your name in here. I sent a pm to both pingman222 and Arwin so I hope we get a few new faces.

We need to set this up for July but I'm not sure what date works for you guys. It will have to be on a Saturday or Sunday for me.
The course will be around the Red Deer area. I haven't played any of these courses but personally I like the looks of RiverBend and of course Wolf Creek. I have to play both courses there at some point.

River Bend (Red Deer) http://www.rbgra.ca/
Wolf Creek http://www.wolfcreekgolf.com/

Sunday July 17.
Wolf Creek
The Old Course
11:00 and 11:10
Both times are booked for 3 people if anyone else is coming we can all the course add them to the group.

I'm so excited to play this course and with a bunch of new guys. This is going to be awesome.

What dates work for you?

The 3rd, 10th or 17th will work for me. I need to know a couple weeks ahead so I can schedule for the day.

any of those days would work for me as well
 
I dont know my schedules off by heart but a weekend day should be a fairly safe bet for me at this point. I'll get a better idea tomorrow!

How about we go with the 17th.

What course is everyone favoring.

I can't believe I'm going to say this. It's nice to see a few more guys from the Edmonton area.

one of my friends is also on here too, dale4ace, he's not as active these days with his job. His gf is in calgary so he's always making trips down, i'm sure he would be interested in a red deer round though!

oh I'm sure you guys do have great courses, and poutine is always a great bribe, but a 37 hour drive is a bit much for a weekend ;)

We have direct flights. I'll be your personal driver and pay for your golf.
 
I would really love to make it out to tee it up and just to drive through the area, but I don't know if I'd be able to swing the time off work, as I'd need pretty much a full travel day.

Have fun gents, and I'll be following along on the off chance I could make it happen :D
 
just throwing it out there, but i was just checking my membership area at EPGCC online and it says we could get reciprocals at a few courses, with red deer GCC included, and with the ability to host guests. It would be the guest rate which it looks like is $90. I'm not entirely sure if they'd let me host guests between 2 tee times, but if theres interest, i don't mind inquiring further about details about if that would work or not.

I' d really like to share a round with his beefness some day, but I can't make it happen this summer. I'll let you know next time I go out west, and be sure to PM me if you ever come to Montreal.

and that goes for the rest of you guys too
 
if I lived a couple hours closer I would do it but 9-10 hours to drive to red deer for a round is just a tad crazy. I'd seize up
 
Any of the 3 days will work for me and I will attend for sure. Can't pass up the chance to see Scrap hole out from 100 yards yet again.

I was going to say the 16th or 23rd *might* work for me. But I will definitely try to make the 17th work

I hope you can make it.

I also like the idea of Red Deer GCC
 
OK. I got the green light for July 17th!

Awesome. Love seeing this little group expanding.
 
11 hours or so on a drive for me eliminates me getting out there.

Have a blast guys, looking forward to seeing how your plans shape up!

I would say that is a little bit above my budget for the round. Wolf Creek is around the max I'd be looking to pay at $75 I'd say
 
Are carts mandatory at Wolf Creek? I think they also have an Aberta resident deal.
