Itasca Women's Organization (iwo)
The Itasca Women’s Organization (IWO) has something for women who want to enjoy this beautiful golf facility. The IWO, with support of the Itasca golf professionals, offers two leagues throughout the golf season. Whether you are a beginner golfer (a 9-hole Wednesday late afternoon league) or an accomplished player (18-hole league played on Tuesday or Saturday), there is a place for you.
Our Mission:
to promote women’s golf.
Our Vision:
to provide events that encourages the sport of golf for all women members
In addition to the leagues, women who join the IWO will be eligible to participate in other fun golf events throughout the season. One of the most popular events is the Itasca Ladies Guest Day. All IWO members can invite non-Itasca Country Club women to a day of golf, a fabulous lunch, and chances to win prizes. Other IWO sponsored events are the Grandmothers Tournament, Charity Event Day, and the end of the year Ryder Cup. IWO also hosts a fall Trunk Show (bring up to three guests for no greens fee) where the latest golf fashions are available at discounted prices.
The most important aspect of the IWO is the camaraderie that develops among all IWO members and the friendships that can develop and last a lifetime. All women over the age of 21 are welcome to join. If you have any questions, reach out to this year’s President of the IWO, Alva J Kreutzer (alvaj@att.net).
IWO 18 Hole League
Season opens in April and can be played on Tuesdays or Saturdays with different events established for each week. The events change from week to week with the same event offered on Tuesday or Saturday to offer flexibility to our working women or busy moms. All women who join the IWO no matter the skill level are welcome to participate in the 18 hole league and all sponsored events. Handicaps will be established to make all the events fun and competitive for everyone.
IWO 9 Hole League
Season opens in April and will be played on Wednesdays beginning at 5:30 pm. The nine hole league is being reintroduced at Itasca to allow women members more flexibility with their busy schedules. All women who join the IWO no matter the skill level are welcome to participate in the 9 hole league and all sponsored events. The 9 hole league will have less structured events than the 18 hole league so those new to the game can just come out and enjoy golf with other IWO members.
