If you are unable to attend golf, you will not lose it. You are responsible for submitting your score to Jason as soon as possible by completing this form . Rain-outs Unless thunderstorms are present, the course will NOT cancel golf under any circumstances. In such a threat, an announcement will be placed on the homepage of this Web site and an e-mail will be sent.
