SAVE THE DATE!
Georgetown Cup
The annual Georgetown Cup is a 3 day competition between Sun City Texas, Berry Creek CC, Cimarron Hills CC and Georgetown CC. Each club sends a team that includes men and women to compete in this event. The format is Four-ball. The event is scheduled Friday - Sunday, August 23 - 25. The courses to be played this year are White Wing, Berry Creek CC and Cimarron Hills CC.
There will be a qualifying process that begins immediately and runs through the month of June. There will be no additional fees above normal green fees to try and qualify.
Please note that there will be a fee for those who end up participating. This fee has been adjusted to $150 and will include dinner, three rounds of golf and two team shirts. We are also obtaining sponsor money for a better experience. What a great deal! The dinner will be held Thursday prior to the first round and spouses are invited at an additional cost of $25.
If you’d like to try and qualify, you may play a round at White Wing any day during June. You must have the scorecard signed and attested by another player and it doesn’t have to be someone else trying to qualify.

Cowan Creek Update
A combination of less than ideal weather and an inability to get sod as quickly as we would like is delaying the reopening of the Cowan Creek front 9 (longer than we hoped for). The front 9 at Cowan Creek will remain closed through Sunday, June 16. Due to some tournaments scheduled, there will be individual days during this time frame when Cowan Creek will open for all 18 holes with the understanding there may be a few temporary greens.
