2017 OGCSA Open ~ Golf Event
2017-05-01 12:00 - 19:00 UTC | Corvallis Country Club, 1850 SW Whiteside Dr, Corvallis, OR, 97333, United States
Kick off the 2017 golf season and come out for the OGCSA Open hosted by Corvallis Country Club. What is the OGCSA Open you ask? The Superintendents Invitational newly rebranded as the OGCSA Open has traditionally been the OGCSA’s premier golf event of the year. Steeped with history, this event has been a great networking opportunity for Superintendents to host their managers, golf professionals, and directors/owners to come out for a day of golf. The OGCSA Board of Directors ~ Golf Committee is revamping this event to be more inclusive of all OGCSA members, as many do not have this traditional make up. So build a foursome of your choice and join us for a great day of golf and camaraderie. The Oregon State University mens golf team will be joining teams during their round to add a little extra fun to the day!
Team registration includes: 4-person golf team, golf carts, range access, lunch, dinner and tee prize.
