After enjoying a pre-round lunch complete with complimentary wine tasting provided by Leelanau Cellars, each foursome is joined by a member of the Detroit Red Wings roster, coaching staff or management team for 18 holes of golf on The Bear or The Wolverine at Grand Traverse Resort and Spa. Following the round of play, foursomes are joined by their Red Wings teammate for the Dinner of Champions reception during which attendees may get autographs in their complimentary commemorative program. Live and silent auctions during the reception offer the chance to bid on sports memorabilia and dream vacations including the opportunity to travel aboard Red Bird III with the team to a pre-season game.

Development Camp Recap
Once again this year the DRW Events in Traverse City kicked off in July when the Red Wings came north for their 2017 Development Camp. From July 7-11, drafted or signed Red Wings prospects received daily on-ice instruction and skill development from a team of coaches within the organization, took part in NHL-level off-ice workouts and attended classes designed to help players make smooth transitions to the life of a professional hockey player, while receiving feedback from Red Wings coaches and management.
Development Camp was well attended by fans who enjoyed watching the players participate in practice sessions and a scrimmage. Thank you fans and Red Wings!
