This is coming on short notice I know, but we are trying to ensure we get all our events in with the limited time remaining in a busy season.

 

This Friday, July 17th we will be having our Annual Putting Tournament. There is also Music at The Ridge with the ‘St, Peter Street Stompers’ from 6-8pm. So a little something for everyone to come spend the warm evening at Manitou. Cool off in the bar or enjoy some hot putting on the practice green!

 

Qualifying Window: 5pm-6:20pm: In order to play, show up within that time frame, pay the $10 entry and establish your qualifying score (How many 1 putts on the 18 hole course) We will then take the top 16 scores and start our match play approximately 6:45pm. If you do not like your first score, you can try again during the qualifying window for another $10 fee. No limit on your entries. 

 

Match-play: Starting around 6:45pm we will have the 18 hole match-play portion where its total strokes to finish each hole with our top 16 finishers. We will continue to play until we have our 3rd place and Championship matches set. 

 

Eligibility: Anyone can participate, young, old, members, non members, men, women, family, friends…if you have $10, you can play. We also encourage anyone wanting to hang out and have a good time to come and watch as well. As was mentioned music inside and we will also have some pizza provided by the Men’s Club for those attending.

 

We are trying to make this a much more fun event with music, laughs, food, etc. It’s a lower entry fee as well just to lighten the stakes a bit to keep things moving. Hope to see some new faces and crown a champion for 2026 this Friday. Mark Sottille is our reigning Champion after a stellar performance in 2025. New year, new Champion? We shall see. 

This past Sunday the 12th of July was our first attempt at a full blown Senior Club Championship. We had awesome participation, a great finish, and some worthy Champions. You can see the full list of winners for each flight and the full payouts attached. We had 3 age divisions play net scoring (50’s, 60’s, 70+). We also had the overall gross Champion crowned as well. 

 

Overall Gross Senior Club Championship: On a hot Sunday it really was a war of attrition. With quality players like Paul Commers (77) and Scott Lynch (76) missing out on the playoff, that left Mark Sotille (75) and Kevin Glasow (75) tied for the lead after regulation. That meant Bonus Holes would be played and they went to the 1st tee to settle things. In the end, it was Kevin Glasow with a Par on the 1st playoff hole who captured the victory! Congratulations to Kevin Glasow for being crowned 2026 Senior Club Champion at Manitou Ridge!
