For the third time in its 48 year history, the International Golfing Fellowship of Rotarians will
bring its Championship competition to Pinehurst. The 48th World Championship will be held on
three of the acclaimed golf courses of Pinehurst Resort the week of August 21-27, 2011.

The stories of champions and the traditions of championship golf have been created at
Pinehurst since 1898. Golf Digest selected the Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Aberdeen Area of
North Carolina as one of the top three golfing destinations in the world!

This is a place where legends come to design golf courses that will crown their careers. It’s a
locale steeped in the history of the sport — the place where the first driving range opened for
business. Even mini golf got its start here. No wonder golf aficionados consider the area The
Home of American Golf.

As passionate as visitors are about golf, they find life off the greens just as rewarding. The
charming towns and villages of the Pinehurst, Southern Pines and Aberdeen area cater to all
your needs for a relaxing, memorable North Carolina experience.

The area also features many fantastic diversions, including incredible shopping, day spas,
pottery trails, gardens, historic sites and tours, and exceptional antiquing. Restaurants and pubs
are mostly independently owned, offering the visitor a unique dining experience not soon to be
forgotten.

This will be a memorable week for all who attend. Come to Pinehurst and experience Southern
charm and hospitality, great golf and good fellowship.
