Welcome to the 2023 LCJGT Season - Tournament Directors Preseason Message
Welcome to the very start of the 2023 LCJGT golf season! While we are months away from getting the first golf balls in the air truly kicking off the year, the planning for another exciting summer is well underway.
There aren’t a lot of changes this year. The most exciting one is adding Lebanon Country Club onto our schedule for Monday, July 10. If you haven’t played there before, you are in for a treat. It will be one of our most walker-friendly stops on tour. Plus, the greens are always in exceptional condition. They are sloped and quick. At times, two putts can be a challenge and something to be celebrated.
I also want to highlight our partnership with GAP (Golf Association of Philadelphia) and their Youths on Course Program. When you are a member of the LCJGT, you also will be a member of this program as well. It provides you access to a GAP/USGA GHIN handicap, access to GAP tournaments, and significantly discounted play at participating courses. There is more information on our Youth on Course page, and I suggest you check it out.
Also, our annual “Big C” Scholarship golf tournament will be taking place again this year at Fairview Golf Course. It is scheduled for Saturday, April 22. The format is a fun two-player scramble in which teammates must have a minimum ten-year age gap. A special thanks to Fairview for their support on this event. To make this event successful, it takes a course to partner with us and Fairview has stepped up again this year.
Mark down March 1 on your calendars as the first day to register for 2023!
