Porter Cup Senior Amateur
September 3 – 6, 2013
The Niagara Falls Country Club is pleased to host the 2013 Senior Porter Cup, to be held September 3rd to September 6th, for scratch players 55 and older.
Niagara Falls Country Club was designed by A.W. Tillinghast in 1918 and has hosted “The Porter Cup,” one of the Nation’s top amateur championships, for the last 54 years. It is located in Lewiston, New York, an historic community approximately 5 miles north of one of the seven modern wonders of the world – Niagara Falls.
Spouses are encouraged to attend. There are many historical tours available, including “The Underground Railroad,” the Maid of the Mist boat trip, Whirlpool Jetboat Tours, and several wine tours.
Golfweek has designated The Senior Porter Cup as a major tournament, awarding 800 points to the champion. There will be both Senior and Super Senior (age 65) Divisions played from different tees.
The entry fee is $425.00, which includes a practice round on September 3rd, green fees and carts, full breakfast and lunch every day, plus the “Player’s Dinner” on Wednesday evening, and cocktails and dinner on Thursday evening. The Spousal package is an additional $100.00 and includes all breakfasts, lunches and the dinners as well. Participants will be issued Temporary Membership Cards to facilitate any other Club charges you may have. Golf Shop Gift Certificates will be awarded to the top one third in each division, as well as a crystal trophy to each champion.
Niagara Falls Country Club will be open for additional practice rounds on September 1st and 2nd in the afternoon, for a reduced green fee ($30), plus cart. Wives are welcome to play as well. Call the Pro Shop at 716-285-1331 for available tee times.
If the field is over subscribed, later entries will be put on a waiting list.
