Desert Mashie Golf Club will showcase PebbleCreek

Carolyn Suttles

Desert Mashie Golf Club will once again showcase PebbleCreek with its 70th annual Invitational Golf Tournament May 4-6, 2018. We would like to thank the community and sponsors for all of their support.

Desert Mashie Golf Club is steeped in history and proud of its heritage. It is one of the oldest golf organizations in Arizona. It was founded by ten professional African American men on April 12, 1946 in Phoenix, Arizona. Because segregation was the law of the land, most public golf courses were not available to minorities. Fast forward to today; we have become a diverse organization and fellowship with all nationalities from all walks of life no matter what age, creed, religion or color. We have come a long ways. We now provide Junior Golf, Scholarship and Women in Golf programs.

Desert Mashie Golf Club throughout the years has held their annual tournaments all over the valley. As the first woman president in 70 years and a resident of PebbleCreek for over 20 years, I take pride in bringing my organization to PebbleCreek.

We look forward to a fun filled weekend of golf, food, music and dancing. The community is welcome to come out and join in on this exciting event. Golfers can golf as guests; non- golfers can join in on the non-golfers activities and enjoy the food and entertainment. Those interested, go to desert mashie.org and sign up.
