SEE WHAT’S AHEAD THIS SUMMER AT THE TAHOE DONNER GOLF COURSE
It’s never too early to get excited for golf. With spring just around the corner, golf season will soon be here. There is much to look forward to this upcoming season, including ways to start brushing up on your game now, calls for new membership from the community’s men’s and women’s golf clubs, registration for youth programs and so much more. How will your summer of golf play out? Read on to learn more about how to make the most of your season at Tahoe Donner.


Winter Golf Simulator
The course may be closed, but the FlightScope launch monitor and golf simulator located inside the Pro Shop is open to members and the public through April 28. Whether you want to practice on your own, enjoy with friends (up to three) or take a lesson from a PGA-affiliated instructor, the state-of-the-art simulator is an ideal way to continue improving or enhancing your skills in the off-season.

Available by reservation Wednesday through Saturday from 10AM-4PM, reserve your private or group sessions by emailing jhwang@tahoedonner.com. Learn more about the golf simulator here.


Fair Weather on the Fairways
With a more moderate winter, Tahoe Donner is anticipating optimal course conditions this upcoming season. “I’m excited to begin working on the course this spring,” says Ram Sena, head of golf course maintenance. “With fewer big storms this winter, we’re hoping to have an earlier start to the season than last year, while anticipating prime conditions on the fairways and greens.”

Men’s + Women’s Golf Clubs
Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the sport and looking to meet new friends and fellow golfers, the men’s, women’s and women’s 9-holer golf clubs are always seeking new members to come out and enjoy friendly rounds, special tournament events, socials and more. Tahoe Donner’s golf clubs are already hard at work finalizing their upcoming calendars, with some events underway this month and next. The Women’s 9-Holer Club has begun its membership drive, and the Women’s Golf Club will head to Sacramento for NCGA play days starting April 15. A welcome social is also planned for all golf clubs, their members and partners on Sunday, May 26, to celebrate the start of the season.
