The WGC has re-opened with our earliest start in history and we continue to conduct pre-season check flights for our members. We continue to monitor and abide by the Province's COVID restrictions and recommendations and until further notice, we are asking visitors to our facility to please respect our request to not attend. We will update this message when restrictions ease sufficiently to allow a return to a more normal operation. Thanks for your understanding.
