We've Ordered Great Weather For #29...
But It's Best To Pack Your Suitcase For All Types Of Conditions

We have warm, sunny weather penciled in for September 13-15, but just in case the weatherman doesn't come through, you should pack for all kinds of weather! So be sure to throw a jacket in the suitcase, along with your golf shirts and sandals. Even if the daytime temperature is in the 70s and beautifully sunny, the mornings in September can typically start in the 40s. The Invitational's attire is "Golf Casual."

Visit the GOMACO web site, http://www.gomaco.com, and click the weather banner on the lower, right side of the page, and check on the weather of western Iowa as we get closer to the event.

All Food, Refreshments And Green Fees Are Compliments Of GOMACO & Invitational Sponsors!

There's very little for you to be responsible for when you arrive in Ida Grove. All of your green fees and cart rentals during your stay are compliments of GOMACO, and all meals and refreshments served during the Invitational are provided by event sponsors and GOMACO.

All we need for another successful Invitational is for you to register today, and come to Ida Grove in September to have a great time golfing with us!

 

Teams Are Comprised Of All Skill Levels, So Everyone Has A Great Shot At Invitational Prizes & Glory!

Do you golf all of the time? Are you an occasional golfer? Are you a little rusty with your game? Don't sweat it. The GOMACO Invitational is geared so no matter what your skill level, you have an excellent chance to come out a winner, and no matter what, you'll be sure to have a great time!

Each team in the Contractors' Shoot-Out has an A, B, and C player, the Scramble Tournament has teams with an A, B, C and D player, and the Putting Tournament has teams of two.

Ask anyone who's attended, and they'll tell you our golf tournament is unique and fun for all skill levels! Then come to Ida Grove this September and experience it for yourself.

 

Check In Both Tuesday & Wednesday Mornings At The Ida Grove Country Club

One of the most important things you can do for us (aside from registering right now!), is to remember to check in at the Ida Grove Country Club when you arrive on Tuesday morning, September 14. At that time you will confirm your participation in the 2-Person Putting Tournament. Check in for the Putting Tournament will close at 11:30 a.m.

We would like you to check in once more by 8 a.m. on Wednesday, September 15, if you are participating in the 4-Person, 18-hole, Scramble Tournament. You will pay your $65 entry fee at that time (100 percent payback in cash and prizes), and we will give you a packet of Scramble Tournament "goodies."

After everyone has checked in for each of these events, the computer will randomly pick the teams, and where you will be golfing. This information will be provided near the Ida Grove clubhouse before the start of each event.

 

What You'll Receive At GOMACO Invitational #29

When you check in for the first time (which will be Tuesday for those of you who are participating in the Putting Tournament or Contractors' Shoot-Out), you'll receive your official GOMACO Invitational #29 cap, and tournament informational booklet.

When you check in on Wednesday morning for the Scramble Tournament, we'll have a packet of "goodies" for you to enjoy during tournament day. The contents are currently "Top Secret," so you'll just have to join us on September 15 to find out what we have in store!

 

GOMACO Employees Are Everywhere, Should You Need Assistance

If at any time you have any questions, or need assistance with absolutely anything, please don't hesitate to find your nearest GOMACO employee. We will be the ones with the GOMACO logo on our name badges, and will be ready to help out!

 

Chartered Buses Are Provided For Wednesday's 4-Person Scramble Tournament

We have lined up chartered buses to transport guests who are golfing out of town in Wednesday's Scramble Tournament. They will line up in front of the Ida Grove clubhouse when it is time go to your course. You will find out which course you will be on after the Scramble Tournament check-in has closed that morning, and announcements will be made when it is time to load your bus. Please take everything that you will need with you, as you won't be returning to Ida Grove until late in the afternoon for the "Grand" Champion Shoot-Out!
