Overview

About the Program:

The Cherry Hills caddie program is one of the largest and most respected youth caddie programs in the United States, supporting over 300 caddies annually. As a foundational part of the Club's golf experience and tradition, the program plays a vital role in shaping young leaders, fostering work ethic, and supporting opportunities for advancement through the Evans Scholars and Cherry Hills Palmer Scholarship programs.

Cherry Hills averages 27,000 rounds of golf each season, with roughly 15,000 rounds supported by caddies. This underscores the program's integral place in the Club's culture and daily operations.

All Cherry Hills caddies serve as independent contractors and represent a diverse mix of A, B, and Junior classifications, each contributing to the vibrant, service-focused atmosphere that defines our member and guest experiences.
