This event is open to members and their guests.

This links-style course is challenging, due to the many hazards hidden throughout the design. There are several water hazards and drainage ditches that come into play on a number of holes. The fairways are mostly flat, except for some gently rolling. The signature hole is #3, a par 3, which calls for an elevated tee shot down to a medium-sized green that slopes away from the tee. Proper ball speed and accuracy play an important role on this hole.

Directions:  From the City of St. Louis, take I-70 going W to Mid Rivers Mall Dr and turn left, continue for 3 miles to the course, which is located on the left-hand side of the street.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE April 23rd
Registration forms can be found in your member binder. If you have joined recently and do not have your member binder yet, eMail to inquire about getting a registration form for this event. (Please put Mid Rivers in your subject line.)
