A Message From The Executive Professional
Dear Tournament Organizer:
Many groups, companies and organizations avoid golf tournaments because of the mistaken belief that they are so much work or it will cost the company to much money. However, golf is an important part of the corporate culture in North America. Golf tournaments can provide staff with large amounts of moral, while at the same time, offering customers an important thank you.
There is no other game in the world today that is as great as the game of golf. Golf offers equal opportunities for players of all abilities and backgrounds, while providing an excellent environment to enhance friendships. At Cougar Creek we take the golf experience one step further. From the moment you arrive until the last prize has been handed out, my staff and I will make sure every part of your day is taken care of with the highest regard to professionalism and service.
There is no better value than a golf event. Cougar Creek, and the experience we can provide, is an exceptional value compared to other golf course of similar stature. Please review the enclosed information and contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Yours in golf,
Jake Behiels – PGA of Canada Executive Professional
Dallas Jackson – PGA of Canada Head Professional
