We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve rescheduled Swinging Fore The Arc with Ed Clements, and are planning an event that promises to be fun and memorable!
Monday, October 26, 2020
Onion Creek Club, 2510 Onion Creek Pkwy, Austin, TX 78747
Our top priority is making this event responsibly safe and comfortable for each individual attendee. What that means:
Details:
- Registration will be handled online. You will be asked to input your credit card information at that time and will have the opportunity to purchase mulligans, raffle tickets, etc. in advance. This will substantially reduce the amount of personal contact and check-in time.
- To the extent possible, check-in will be handled remotely via text messaging. Because of this, it’s important that we have each players’ cell phone contact.
- To ensure all participants’ safety and adherence to government health mandates of no gatherings over 10 people, all teams will be limited to 4 players and given a specific tee time (i.e. we will not have a shotgun start). This will allow for the maximum social distancing on the course; however it does mean limited capacity, so register quickly to ensure you aren’t shut out.
- While separate – i.e. private – golf carts are encouraged, players will be allowed to share a cart as long as they live in the same household or wear face masks to ensure health and safety. Please tell us if you will be sharing a golf cart with a member on your team. All carts are sanitized before and after use.
- What you can expect on the course:
- Golf will take place rain or shine unless Onion Creek management calls golfers off the course for a weather delay.
- Driving range and practice greens are open but 6-foot spacing must be maintained.
- There is no water on the course since it can’t be sanitized after each use. However, each golf cart is equipped with a beverage cooler, and beverage carts will make frequent rounds.
- There will be no rakes and normal course amenities, as these also can’t be sanitized after each use.
- Pins cannot be removed for sanitation reasons.
- To the extent possible, food and beverage options will be in single-serve contactless containers.
- Artwork created by our Arc Artists will be available for purchase on your mobile device via our online gallery.
- Again, your safety and comfort is our priority. To that end, here are links to some articles which may be helpful:
