The question of how it all began may be debated by some, but to the Scot, there is no doubt where the game of golf was developed centuries ago–and that no Highland Festival would be complete without it! The Fred Thayer Memorial Golf Tournament is held alternate years at the beautiful Thousand Acres Lakeside Golf Club. Foursomes are welcome. And, oh yes–wear your kilt!
Flag Prizes for laddies and lassies.
