eginning in 1974, and in each year since, in the month of September, Finnish-Americans and Finnish-Canadians have congregated for the Annual Finn Golf tournament and banquet held in the Portland, Oregon vicinity.
Only 8 days to the Big 2008 Event . . . a shotgun start will commence at 1:00 PM on Friday, September 05, 2008. Read the Chairman's Recap on Finn Golf 2007 by clicking here.
Finn Golf 2008, the 34rd annual tournament, is slated for Friday, September 05, 2008 in Kelso, Washington. Note, that the 2007 event has been re-established to it's traditional Friday after Labor Day date.
Finn Golf is more of a cultural event than a sporting contest. It is not so much winning at the competition, 'sisu' takes care of those that possess it, but rather the opportunity to be with those that share an inherited ancestry and aboriginal past.
If you are a new comer to the tournament, please peruse the site to learn the history of the event and plan to participate in the next event. You can register for Finn Golf 2008 right on-line, by clicking on the registration.
