Thank you for the list, it is very helpful!
I’d jump in to add re: Montreal restaurants: Vin Mon Lapin, Agrikol, Joe Beef/Liverpool House. Enjoy! @Moomba

Checking in from downtown Toronto here. Great to see so many GTA folks — it would be fun to have a meetup this summer.
I play a bunch of GTA Am Tour events each year and try to get up to Osprey Valley (which is the GOAT facility imo) as much as I can.

I’m in Newmarket and there are a few more on the GTA. A meet up or two this summer would be great. Where do you play most of your golf?
That’s great. I mostly play at Osprey or Bond Head, but I jump around depending on the group I’m playing with.

Just listened to the January Nest podcast… Any thoughts of organizing a GTA/Niagara NIT? I’d love to drive up from Buffalo, plus others would too? If I can help, I’d like to help… any thoughts on a charity or cause to support?

Agreed. Osprey would be the perfect spot.

I’m up for informal meet ups as well as a NIT event if it happens. Osprey would be great choice.
I will take any excuse to play at Osprey. They still have the play all day rates? Easy to get 36 in there during a day mid summer and always good to check off more than one course at the property.

I believe they still have the 185+tax play all day deal. If they do it’s a no-brainer

It isn’t as good a deal as it used to be but still pretty sweet. I miss the old days when you didn’t need a tee time and could just show up and play all day. There are rumors of more changes now that they’re TPC…2nd clubhouse, guest cabins, and converting Heathlands to fully private. The memby for a public player is still a great deal and if I lived 20 min closer I’d jump at it.

Most of you have probably heard of the RACDG through the great many chats and threads and general anarchy on here. You may even have been on the Roll Call document. But, I’m here to tell you that as the society has grown I’ve been doing some housekeeping today and noticing a few more people trickling into the two Canadian chapters, as well as a Great Lakes one and the Pacific Northwest, which for now is including BC and Alberta. So I figured I’d post in here to see if anyone else is interested and might want to join so we can get Canada going. I mean, the Americans are charging ahead and no-one likes the let the Yanks win, ammirite?
If you don’t know what the RACDG is I’ll stick the link on at the bottom, but basically its a playing society that bounced out from some conversations in the Refuge way back in Nov 2018. It’s essentially just a fun opportunity to get together and play but ultimately it’ll provide membership to every chapter across the world, so no matter where you travel you can always find other members to play with and get a game. We also hold comps a few times a year so you can get involved in that and even travel to take part in other chapter’s comps (for example the GB&I chapter is doing The MacKenzie Cup in St Andrews in April the same week as the NLU trip and 40 people are playing in it).
I’m hoping that a few of you are interested enough to get the Canadian chapters up and running and someone is keen and organised enough to take on the captain roles to get it going.
