The US Canada Golfing Fellowship of Rotarians was organized in February 1990 by Bryce Roper, PDG, 5400. The first USCGFR event was held in Portland Maine in 1990 and events have been held annually since. In 2018 the Executive Committee voted to change the organization's name to the United States - Canada Golfing Fellowship of Rotarians (USCGFR) to better reflect the composition of our membership.
The current policy of the USCGFR Board is to rotate the venues among the various geographic regions in the United States and Canada. The 31st US Canada Championship will take place on October 3- 6, 2021 in Niagara-on-the-Lake. For Ontario golfers this is close to home.
The golf is organized with at least one practice round and three scoring rounds. You do not have to be a scratch golfer to participate. All you need is an official handicap. We use the Stableford point system for scoring for the various divisions of skill and place maximum value on making new friends playing together as teams and as individuals. The events are focused on fun and fellowship.
We would like to get as many golfers from Ontario as possible to join our event. We have a special limited discounted fee for Ontario Golfers. For more information you can contact Lynn Lewis by email or phone.
