Welcome to the Winnetka Men's Club

The 2022 Golf Season will be upon us in No Time

We are planning on a full season of golf in 2022.  We have in store a good mix of competition and social events. Sign ups for the 2022 season will begin in Early February.  The  rennovation of the golf course is still  targeted to start in early November 2022.  We will let you know as we learn more.

The Men's Club is working on removing Buckthorn from the berms of the Golf Course 

This is the 10th year we have been doing this. We work on days with ok temperatures and no precipitation. Once snow is on the ground we stop. If you are interested, let Pat Dowdle know (patd@winnetkagolf.com) and we'll add you to the email list.
