Some have wondered why we would ask the question; the reason is the growing number of members that had been asking if this could be permitted at Mad River.  ]]> Tue, 23 Jul 2019 04:00:00 GMT <![CDATA[Course Damage]]> What!!!!  This happened to the 11th green on Men's Member Guest Day - How could that be?

Ladies Day Trial: I am investigating the best timing to meet the needs of the majority of ladies that play on Tue. So for Aug. 6, 13, 20 Ladies Day will be held starting at 10 am for 18 holers and noon for nine holers with lunch, from the menu, following play. Unfortunately due to previous commitments of the tee on Tues morning, an earlier time or a shot gun were not an option at this time.
