Those that have not experienced White Manor should check it out. Bobby Weed did a first rate job.

That is a strong schedule.  I was fortunate to play White Manor last year with Tim Martin, Professor Bausch and a friend of architecture Eric Settle. Along with Yale and Kittansett, one of the three revelations of the year for me.  It is hard to believe how below the radar WM is.
For any GAP members that have not played Philly CC, take the opportunity on the April Play Day. you will not be disappointed.

Glad you guys enjoy the schedule as it stands now.  We are extremelly fortunate that some of our most prestegious clubs have opened their doors to all of our members.  We are working on securing a few more clubs to round out the rota.  Keeping checking the website over the next few weeks as we finalize with a few more clubs.

Great looking roster!  I really need to get out there to see White Manor.  I have heard nothing but praise.

I'm in for Philly Country on the 23rd. I would rather do the one at Metedeconck[sp] a week after, but since I'm hoping to play in the Philly Am this year, I think I'll have a free practice round at Tavistock that day...can't say no to that!

Any word if the Centennial 9 will be used for this? I put "Spring/Mill 9s please" as a special instruction  :P

Wait, wait, Chris, you didn't go to a long putter, did you?

I am in for Philadelphia CC as well.  Looking forward to it.

Bill, I believe we will be playing the Championship (Spring/Mill) 18...no Centennial as far as I have been told...

I'm surprised, as a NY Giants fan, that I haven't been moved to the 'alternate' site for the Member Play day, Karakung.  Better not give them any ideas.  Two years ago, at Torresdale, I found I was moved to the 1st tee at John Byrne.  Great day, had the whole course to myself.

For me, White Manor stands out as the must play.  I've heard very good things and was able to view a few holes during a GAP event last year.  Count me in.  Will you be there, Tim?

Unfortunetely Ed, Lancaster is going through some work this year and I don't believe the Championship 18 is going to be available...
