Dornoch plans celebrations for 400th anniversary of golf in the town

Royal Dornoch Golf Club is working closely with the local community to create a year of celebration in 2016 in honour of the 400th anniversary of golf in the town.

Visitors, locals and golfers will be able to enjoy talks on new discoveries about golf in the area; attend music, drama, art exhibitions at Royal Dornoch Golf Club and throughout the town of Dornoch.

“It is an exciting time for the club and we’re so delighted to be met with such enthusiasm from every quarter of the town, with the school children involved in designing our Royal Dornoch Golf Club tartan and many of the town clubs and groups contributing to the 400 year celebration,” said club general manager Neil Hampton.
