American Cancer Society's Coaches vs. Cancer Las Vegas Golf Classic 2025 E-Update

Feb. 2025 ￨Issue No. 3

All Classic golfers receiving Stay and Play; Additional $10K CvC donation secures a one-year private destination golf membership

A new partnership with the Coaches vs. Cancer Las Vegas Golf Classic is going to benefit golfers - and our fight against cancer. 

Dormie Network is an immersive experience for the golf purist, offering full member access to seven unique clubs (see private clubs below) all under a single dues structure. 

All participants in this May’s Las Vegas Golf Classic will receive a certificate for a Stay and Play for a foursome at their choice of five* Dormie Network properties. The package includes:

• Two days of all-inclusive golf (as many rounds as guests would like to play each day with carts included) and accommodations in individual king suite bedrooms for four people.

• The guests simply pay for food and beverages while on property but everything else is included.

*GrayBull (Maxwell, NE) & Dormie Club (West End, NC) are all-inclusive properties and not eligible for Stay and Play certificate usage. GrayBull & Dormie Club can be accessed via donated Dormie Network membership as outlined below.  

These certificates will be distributed at the event this May.

The American Cancer Society does not endorse any products or services.

But that’s not all. With an additional $10K donation to Coaches vs. Cancer, Dormie Network will provide you with a one-year membership to experience all seven Dormie Network properties. Dormie Network offers far more than just 18 holes: each club creates customized experiences for entertaining - and impressing. It’s where pure golf meets genuine hospitality. 

“There are certain relationships that are a game changer,” Classic founder Lon Kruger said. “Dormie Network is committed to Coaches vs. Cancer. We are absolutely delighted with what they are offering to our golfers.” 

For the additional $10K donation to Coaches vs. Cancer, you have access to:



• One 1-year membership to the nation’s most exclusive collection of private destination golf clubs, and includes full member privileges at all 7 private clubs with no green fees, cart fees, range fees or replay rates.

• Seven nationally ranked courses designed by master architects including Coore & Crenshaw, David McLay Kidd, Tom Fazio, Arnold Palmer and Lester George. 

• Onsite cottages in various sizes per club that feature king suites with private baths, fully stocked bars, and high-end amenities. 

• Regionally inspired, seasonal farm-to-course menus and a creative cocktail program to be enjoyed at the clubhouse, in a private dining space, or at your cottage. 

• After the 1-year membership ends, you have the opportunity to continue membership as a dues paying member ($12K annually) without ever paying an initiation fee. 

*To activate a Dormie Network national membership, donor cannot live or own a vacation home within approximately 75 miles of any Dormie Network property.

President of Dormie Network, Zach Peed, remarked: “We are grateful to partner with an organization, in Coaches vs. Cancer, that aligns so well with the Dormie Network Foundation’s philosophy of using golf for good. To be able to leverage our national network of premier private golf clubs to positively impact the fundraising opportunities with Coaches vs. Cancer is something we’re thrilled to be able to do. We’re excited to attend and do all we can to support this May’s Classic - and to do our part in the fight against cancer.”
