W ith Packages That Are Truly Memorable
Imagine yourself g olfing under
Reno’ s clear blue skies w ith a pan­
oramic view o f the m ighty Sierra
Nevada mountains. Next, imagine
enjoying several days in Reno w hile
you tee o ff at one o f the area’s premier
courses, at a te rrific package price.
But wait, it gets better. N ow imagine
playing the game o f your life - be­
cause at this elevation, your ball flies
farther.
Imagine that.
N ow make it real in Reno.
Eleven affordable summer pack­
ages featuring Northgate G o lf C lub
and W ildcreek G o lf Course are cer­
tain to have golfers sm iling not o nly
on the links, but all the way back to
their hotels as well. T hat’s because
Reno’s high desert and ro llin g h ills
make fo r fabulous golfing. A nd the
special packages make fo r fabulous
savings.
Northgate G o lf Club devised its
landing areas w ith the elevation in
m ind. B u ilt in the true Scottish links
tradition, N orthgate’ s natural ro llin g
contours combine the a lluring con­
trasts between the greens, surround­
ing sagebrush and a b rillia n t blue sky.
Northgate boasts fast, undulating
greens w h ile 114 grass bunkers
supplement 40 strategically placed
sand traps at this cham pionship
course.
A t W ildcreek G o lf Course, the
site o f past Senior PGA Tours, golfers
find sidehill, uphill, and d o w n h ill lies
that make fo r a challenging game.
The championship course, located in
the foothills o f northeast Reno, covers
more than 7,100 yards and features a
meandering stream, seven lakes and
a panoramic view o f Reno and the
su rro u n d in g T ruckee M eadow s.
W ildcreek also sports a par three ex­
ecutive course.
And - get this - courses situated at
elevations near 5,000 feet (such as
those in Reno) send g o lf balls soaring
an average 13 percent farther than
balls played at a sea level course.
T hat’ s right, experts have actually
figured this out. But as they say, your
actual mileage many vary. So take a
swing in Reno and find out fo r your­
self.
The fo llo w in g packages for sum­
mer g o lf in Reno offer more variety
than ever. Some restrictions do apply;
most packages are priced per person,
double occupancy, and arc subject to
availability.
