THE SKIDS GAME 2024 XXXV

 Welcome to the 

35th Annual SKIDS GAME!!  


The SKID GAME is back!  With the lack of snow, maybe we should be moving it to January?!?  Ok, March will suffice.  Back to the icy cold shotgun starts and probably a little wind to boot.  You love it and you know it!  Welcome back to the 35th Annual SKIDS GAME!



Like always, the first thing is first - UPDATE YOUR GHIN!  No Ghin, No Calcutta. No exceptions.  Please have your GHIN renewed for 2024 ASAP.


Hotel reservations have already been made, and the tee times are set up as well. You do not have to call the hotel or course - we already have you dialed in.  We are still at the same hotel, Holiday Inn Richland on the River. (formerly the Red Lion).  It's turnkey fellas - VENMO Joe your 130 bucks now to @Joe-Walker-39  then just ust show up - done and done.  No need to call for times or rooms -it's done already.

Calcutta Auction will be at the hotel on Thursday night at 8pm.
Dinner and the Awards Ceremony on Friday will be at 5pm at the Hotel (Holiday Inn Richland on the River).

After golf on Friday from around 2pm until 5pm, you can hang out at the course with beers and putt or get a late lunch, go shower up and take a nap, go gamble or bowling - but dinner and awards Friday after golf are not until 5pm at hotel.   We are back to the main larger conference room right off the lobby again this year.  Will have NCAA games playing on the big screen too.
