For those participating in the second annual Rough Riders Girls Golf Classic Tournament, you will receive a separate communication with your designated tee time. Tee times will start at 12:30 pm (Mountain) on Saturday, June 6. Please plan to arrive at Bully Pulpit Golf Course at 11:30am to check-in for the tournament and the camp. We will deliver any luggage or items you bring with you for the camp to the Badlands Motel where all campers will be staying.
Check-in for all other campers will be from 4:00 pm until 5:00 pm (Mountain) in the lobby of the Badlands Motel. During the check-in process, we will tag each camper’s golf bag and luggage to make everything as convenient as possible for the campers and parents. Your golf bag will be transported and kept in a secure place at the Bully Pulpit Golf Course during the entirety of the camp. On Monday morning, each camper should bring their luggage to the lobby of the Badlands Motel before boarding the bus to the golf course. Camp staff will transport all their luggage to the golf course so it is available at the end of the camp where parents will pick up their camper.
We are excited to award three (3) $1,000 college scholarships at the end of the camp as part of driving, chipping and putting contests. To ensure that as many campers as possible have opportunities, once a camper wins a scholarship, they will not be eligible to win another scholarship in subsequent competitions during this year’s camp.
We prioritize the health and safety of all campers. Please inform us of any medical conditions, allergies, or dietary restrictions during the check-in process.
