NCASEF Charity Golf Event & Affiliate Meeting
April 22 -23, 2025
Tuesday – April 22nd – We will begin our Charity Golf event at the Harborside International Golf Center (approximately 17 miles away)
-Transportation provided with a light breakfast followed by a 9:30am Shotgun start time.
11001 S Doty Ave East, Chicago, IL 60628
Harborside International’s two exceptional courses, Port & Starboard, were designed by renowned architect Dick Nugent to bring this great tradition of links golf to Chicago.
Located minutes from the downtown loop area, Harborside brings championship style links golf, open to the public, to Chicago’s doorstep. With the combined rugged links exterior, sculpted fairways and manicured greens that make Harborside the finest choice for locals and travelers to enjoy traditional links golf.
Inspired by seaside links courses in Scotland, England, and Ireland, the Starboard Course at Harborside International Golf Center ranks among the top golf layouts in the Chicago area. As the second course at this esteemed municipal facility, Harborside opened in 1996 with a design by Dick Nugent, who also created the original Port Course. The Starboard Course features no trees, numerous bunkers, tall fescue, and excellent conditions. It offers four sets of tees, ranging from 4,150 yards to 7,166 yards from the tips.
_____________
The toughest hole, ranked as the no. 1 handicap, is the first—a long par 5 peppered with bunkers leading up to the green. Many holes include expansive bunkers either in the fairways or surrounding the greens. The signature hole, the 17th, known as “Buccaneers Cove,” challenges players with a middle iron shot over Lake Calumet, which borders the right side of the angled green, while three deep bunkers on the left provide no room for error.
