Wahconah Country Club Dalton, Massachusetts PLEASE NOTE 2017 CHANGES IN RED SEE ENTRY FORM ENCLOSED www.wcclittlebrownjug.com
For the 46th year, it is our pleasure to present The Little Brown Jug. It is our hope that we can provide every golfer with a tournament experience that you will enjoy, remember and hope to have again. As in all previous Jugs, the Committee has looked long and hard at how we can best present participants with the highest quality tournament in New England. There will be one change in this year s Jug. We will be eliminating the Friday buffet and replacing it with a $20 chit for each golfer in their registration packet. These can be used anytime on Friday at our restaurant. This will allow the morning golfers the opportunity to eat when they finish their round. We wish every participant the best of luck and will do our best to make your Jug tournament the most enjoyable golfing experience of 2017! Tournament Committee Paul Briggs, Tom Hazen, Paul LaPierre, Susan & Matthew Morrison, Jim Scalise, Sue Vigeant
