Itinerary:

The Kettle Creek course at the Cardinal Golf Club is a short 18 hole course. It's only 2590 yards, has 4 holes that are par 4's and the rest are par 3's, making it an ideal venue for beginner level players as well as experienced golfers looking to work on their short game.

While the event coordinator is not a CPGA certified golf teaching professional, I can provide basic instruction on grip, stance, swing mechanics, putting, chipping, and especially golf etiquette.

Our plan is to meet at Downsview station at 9:45 AM and leave no later than 10:00 AM. We should be on the Cardinal Golf Club's driving range by 11:00 AM for a warm up and lessons.

Tee-times have been booked for 12:32 and 12:40, so 45 minutes before our tee-time (11:45 - 11:50), we drive over to the Kettle Creek course to check in. We expect the event duration (from carpool to end of game) to be approximately 6-7 hours, finishing sometime between 4:30 and 5:00 PM.

Afterwards, for those who want to, we'll head to a suitable watering hole for some post game refreshments.

Golf Game Rules:
In order to ensure that everyone keeps a good pace of play during our 18-hole game, we will use the following guidelines:

We will play the best ball off the tee for each hole. Players may elect to move their second shot from the spot of the best drive.
We will also institute a maximum score of double par for each hole. So players who reach the maximum score prior to reaching the green will be allowed to move their ball to any spot on the green to putt.
Other specific golf game etiqutte rules such as taking drops, hazard relief, lift & clean, etc. will be discussed during the round.

- We encourage all members to follow our Etiquette Guidelines at all times while participating in TOC events.
