Syracuse Turners is delighted to he hosting the 44th Annual American Turners National Golf Tournament and we thank the golfers for choosing us as the host. Preparations are well under way and we have contracts with local hotels and two golf courses.

Many of you will remember Liverpool Golf & Country Club from the last two times we hosted the tournament in 1995 and 2002. Some of the more senior players may remember Foxfire Golf Course and we are thrilled to be using that facility for this tournament. Our intentions are to alternate play with the Women's, Senior Men's and Senior Women's divisions playing their final round at Liverpool and the Men s division will play their final round at Foxfire. The final decision will depend on the number of entries in each division.

The host hotel is the Maplewood Inn, 400 Seventh North Street, Liverpool, NY, 13088.  Their phone number is 315-451-1511 and we have 60 rooms reserved there at a rate of $89.00 including a continental breakfast.
