At THE GREAT LAKES GOLF TOUR, tournaments are our business. In addition to providing schedules, results, and news about our tournaments, we run our own "Tour". Some of the things you can expect from THE GREAT LAKES GOLF TOUR are quality courses, a competitive field, web-based administration, and a team who is dedicated to "getting it right."

Please read the following policies carefully. If you do not agree to any of them, please contact us within 48 hours in order to request a refund.  Refund policies for our events are stated and agreed to during the registration process.
