We left Saturday Morning from WInnipeg by chartered bus, stopped at Duty Free and then continued on to play 18 holes at Kings Walk Golf Course (an Arnold Palmer Signature Golf course) in Grand Forks, ND.  After the round, we continued on to Brainerd for a 2 night stay at Cragun's Resort.  Sunday, we played 2 rounds at their Legacy Courses (Bobby's 18 & Dutch 18), both designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr.  Monday was 18 holes at "The Classic at Madden's Resort", ranked #42 on Golf Digest's 2007/2008 America's 100 Greatest Public courses.  Relatively quiet return to Winnipeg Monday night.

The Dutch Legacy and The Classic at Maddens Resort have been awarded 5-Stars in "Golf Digest's 2008 Best Places to Play".  This was a great opportunity to play some of the best golf in North America as there are only 24 courses in total rated at 5-Stars.
