Join the Winnetka Men's Golf Club

Why Join the Winnetka Men's Golf Club?

We like to play golf. Some of our golf is competitive, some is just to play. Our goal is to have fun.  We have weekly events, season long match play competitions, periodic interclub matches and a Thursday Night Leaugue. Members tend to stay around after golf and socialize.

The Park District has a Lottery in March for tee times Saturday and Sunday. You can form a group and get into the lottery, or join an existing group who is looking for players (members will post opoenings on the Mens Club website). Some members just come out each weekend as a single, and fill in with a group that has an opening. Bottom line: it is real flexible!
