The reinforced concrete building will be composed of three connected towers. Each tower will be a different height, with the westernmost being the tallest.[5] The towers will have 47, 71 and 93 stories, respectively.
Golf at the Grand Geneva
With a pair of 18-hole championship courses often considered two of the state’s bests, Grand Geneva Resort & Spa was recognized as a top 10 Northern US golf resort by Condé Nast Traveler. It’s just one of the golf destination's many accolades.
The Highlands Golf Course—The Highlands is a Scottish-inspired, links-style course, complete with a beautiful landscape of scenic hills, trickling creeks and lush foliage. It was originally designed by Pete Dye and Jack Nicklaus, and transformed in 1996 by Bob Cupp.
The Brute Golf Course—The magnificent Brute, at over 7,000 yards, is one of the most challenging layouts in the Midwest and is considered one of Wisconsin's best golf courses. Enhanced with 68 bunkers and huge rolling greens, averaging over 8,000 square feet, this par-72 golf course is perfectly manicured and immaculately maintained.
The Golf fee for the Foundation Outing is $245 per person, which includes the green fees, cart and a boxed lunch with a donation going to the CRSI Foundation.
The Golf fee for the Regional Tournament is $195 per person, which includes the green fees, cart and a boxed lunch.
