Note: The Clearwater Horseshoe Club is donating $3.60 toward the cost of each meal, which is actually $23.60. Therefore your cost will be $20. We realize this is more than usual, but we checked out many places and this is the going rate since almost everything has gone up in price these days. This Country Club does over 600 banquets a year, so they know what they are doing. We also have to keep in mind that we are using the room for 4 hours. We had to guarantee a minimum of 100 meals so please sign up to attend the banquet when you mail in your singles entry form.
