Downloadable Maps For Smooth Traveling

Download our printable maps to make traveling through western Iowa as easy as possible. They include maps of: Ida Grove area; western Iowa; and Google's map of western Iowa.

The flooding of the Missouri River along the western edge of Iowa has made traveling a little more complicated this summer. As of late June, a few segments of I-29 around Omaha, Nebraska, have been closed and detours have been posted. These areas could be open again by Invitational time in September, but please be aware of this as you plan your travels.

If you have any questions about the roads you plan to take, please don't hesitate to contact us. You can also use the following web sites, http://www.511ia.org, or www.iowadot.gov to keep up to date on any road closings or road construction along your planned route.

 

We're Sure The Weather Will Be Perfect For #30, But Pack For All Possibilities

We've placed our order for warm, beautiful weather for #30, but just in case the weatherman doesn't come through, when you're making your plans, be sure to pack for all possibilities! So 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, it isn't unusual for the mornings in September to 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!

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!

 

Invitational Teams Are Comprised Of All Skill Levels, So Everyone Has A Shot To Win Great Prizes & Cash!

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 (aside from registering right now!), is to check in at the Ida Grove Country Club when you arrive on Tuesday morning, September 20. 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 21, if you are participating in the 4-Person, 18-hole, Scramble Tournament. At that time you will pay your $65 entry fee (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 pick the teams, and where you will be golfing. This information will be provided near the Ida Grove clubhouse before the start of both events.

 

Goodie Bags, Caps & More For All At Invitational #30

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 #30 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.

 

Feel Free To Ask Your Nearest GOMACO Employee If You Need Assistance Or Have Questions

If at any time you have any questions, or need assistance, 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

Chartered buses have been arranged 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!
