Stanley Thompson Series Events

2023

 The Stanley Thompson Series Events feature small fields (typically 28 or less tee times) held at Stanley Thompson designed courses. These events are designed to provide members of the Society the opportunity to experience Stanley's work alongside like minded Stanley Thompson fans. The day is simple, often just golf and a guest speaker, no competition. Just golf!
