Giving Opportunities
The state-of-the-art Clubhouse features a year-round restaurant, dining room, terrace, bar, private meeting space, golf shop, and multi-sport simulators. The project also includes: a regulation-sized croquet court, short game practice area, event lawn, monarch sanctuary, pollinator and community gardens, winter recreation areas, bicycle repair station, and environmental programs.
To realize the full vision for the project, Friends of The Glencoe Golf Club is working to raise $3 million in private donations, with over $2.2 million raised to date. Friends invites the entire community to donate and create an important community center that connects young people, adults and families to one another and to nature.
Donors who contribute $1,000 will be recognized in the Grand Opening program book, and donors who contribute $5,000 will also be invited to a “sneak peek” champagne toast and be the first to see the new Clubhouse! Donors who contribute $10,000 or more will be recognized on a prominent, permanent campaign donor wall in the new Clubhouse.
All contributions can be made outright or pledged over a three-to-five-year period. There are exciting, permanent naming opportunities available starting at the $200,000 gift level, and special groups like the 21st Century Founders, comprised of donors who are contributing six-figures or more.
