EXPLANATION OF PREFERRED TEE TIMES FOR PLATINUM MEMBERS FOR OUR UPCOMING WINTER MEMBERSHIP
We have struck a deal with at least 4 private clubs in the west central Florida area to book tee times for Platinum level Paradise members. Only platinum members will be permitted to take advantage of booking these tee times at preferred rates in addition to having such great access to great clubs. We will inform platinum members of the clubs, tee time availability, cost per round and other details when the winter period starts. We will be adding more private clubs to the roster of those participating in the PREFERRED TEE TIME PROGRAM.

MILLION $ CHALLENGE AND $5,000 PUTTING CONTEST ADDED TO OUR EVENT SCHEDULE
Starting with the first Winter Member event on November 3 at Carrollwood CC, we’ll begin qualifying for both the Million $ Challenge and the $5,000 Putting Contest.
At each Paradise Play Day through March 23 at Black Diamond, two par 3s will serve as qualifiers for the Million $ Challenge. Winners of the closest-to-the-pin contests on those holes advance to the next stage at Plantation Palms GC.
Each event will also feature a putting contest, with one qualifier advancing to Plantation Palms as well. The Paradise Day at the Palms is set for Sunday, March 29.
More details on the contests and the March 29 event will be shared soon, just another reason to join us at our upcoming events!
GHIN HANDICAP
We will be hosting a minimum of 4 competitive individual stroke play events for Paradise members that will require a GHIN handicap including a club championship, a member guest, a member-member and a member-member-member. We offer that service for $42+tax for year for Paradise members, $60+tax for non members.
