Welcome to The Fairway Network!

Ah, golf season.

Golf season is year-round at my house:

  • where cable television gives us year-round seats in the grandstand at the 18th green so we can watch in thermostat-controlled comfort as the best PGA and LPGA players chase their little white balls through warm climates worldwide;

  • where a chipping wedge leans against the wall of the rec room, waiting for a TV time out and a commercial break and a repeat episode of tonight’s show to feel a little love; and

  • where the Masters inspires us to take stock of our rusty strokes, take inventory of our equipment, and take note of rising temps until, at long last, it’s time to tee off in Chicago.

The Fairway Network works year-round to help you make the most of a seasonal opportunity to golf. Whether you play to beat the field or beat your own best score, stay in shape or stay connected personally or professionally, TFN provides a resource and an outlet for women who play golf.

TFN promotes women’s access to golf, teaching new golfers the skills and the rules of the game and reinforcing proper golf etiquette for players of all abilities. TFN provides social and business benefits to its members, giving Chicago women an opportunity to network through golf.

The 2010 TFN season kicked off on a snowy night with cocktails and conversation at the Vertigo Sky Lounge at the Dana Hotel. We talked about our careers, our winter travel (and our winter golf), and our yearning to swing a club as soon as the Windy City winter wonderland thaws and we return to our beloved home courses.

Next we got our heads in the game with Playing Between the Ears, a pre-season tune-up focused on our mind spaces rather than our club faces.

Now TFN greets golf season with a host of weekly leagues, single-day events and tournament play, offering its members new and old the best of golf in Chicago: terrific courses, fabulous foursomes, camaraderie and friendly competition.

We invite you to join us at the TFN Tee Off at the East Bank Club on Thursday, May 6th, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., to learn more about the activities TFN has teed up for the 2010 golf season.

See you at the 19th hole!
