You can then use the regular club calendars to help promote the event outside of the Tee Times Calendar.
Use Case(s):
- As an Admin, I would like to create Special Events within the Tee Times Calendar for events like tournaments.
- As an Admin, I would like for Golf Events to also show on Club Calendars.
- As an Admin, I would like to create events that members must register for
