There is no better way to enjoy the waning days of summer than getting outdoors with your colleagues at the Calgary Classic Golf Tournament. For eight years this tourney has become a must attend event for retail and supplier WRLA members. Mike Doyle, WRLA Chair and Owner of The Home Improvement Warehouse in Calgary pulls no punches in delivering a top-notch-wow-that-was great event.
Make it a full work day and sign up with the good people at West Fraser Treated right in Sudre for a "MILL TOUR" in the morning. There will be lots of time to make it for the 11:30 a.m. registration and 1:00 p.m. tee off. For those out of towners you can stay at the new Best Western Mountainview Inn and Suites. They have a special rate of $109 for WRLA members. Now that you are in groove stay the extra day and re-live the course with your business associations for a special rate of $75. Don’t miss out. Click on the PDF’s below to see all details for accommodations, sponsorship and registration. All proceeds from the tournament are directed to the WRLA Bursary and Scholarship Fund.
