Welcome to the Applewood Probus 2024 Golf Season

We will be golfing this year at Mount Nemo Golf Club located at 5377 Walkers Line, Burlington, ON L7M 0P9.

Games are played on every Tuesday morning starting around 9:30 am. We usually have between 16 and 20 golfers play each week. Foursomes are changed each week to enable us to meet more Probus members. All skill levels are welcome – especially new golfers

Why are we thinking about golf so soon? Well, the season starts in about 3 months. Mount Nemo offers memberships of 15, 30 and 45 games. These are available now and usually they sell the maximum number of memberships fairly quickly. If interested please consider soon. Unlike a number of golf courses in the GTA, Mount Nemo allows us to book tee times for the entire golf season, so we know that we have a game and at what times. We also do not have to prepay, as is happening at other golf courses (unless you get the discounted membership). In order to plan with Mount Nemo, I need to know how many golfers plan to play at Mount Nemo. This will allow me to negotiate with the club to get the best tee times etc. If you are interested in playing at Mount Nemo, please let me know by February 15. You are not committing to playing every week, just to have a desire to play. Each week you will be asked if you want to play 2 weeks hence. That is not firm until about week prior to the golf date. Even then, if an emergency happens, accommodations can be made.

For more information on Mount Nemo please see their website www.mountnemogolfclub.ca or contact me at garry.j.jenkins@gmail.com or 905 820 2827

Hope to see you on the golf course.

2024 Golf Coordinator
