The Vulcan Golf and Country Club throws open their doors Friday, April 7, for the season.

Director of Golf Gord Brayton says while opening day is always exciting, they're already gearing up for a big event in June.

"The club is hosting the Southern Alberta qualifying tournament for the Alberta Amateur on Thursday, June 8. So that's a big event for us. So, we're expecting quite a few golfers from Southern Alberta to come and play Vulcan and try to qualify for the Alberta Amateur this year."

Brayton says the course made it through winter unscathed and is ready for the season.
