Why this package wins for nonprofits
Scotland is the birthplace of golf, and this package puts your auction winners on two of its most storied courses: Dunbar Golf Club and Kilspindie Golf Club. These aren't resort rounds—they're pilgrimages to hallowed ground, the kind of experience that stirs genuine bidding energy in a room. Five nights at the Apex Waterloo Hotel in Edinburgh anchors the trip in Scotland's vibrant capital, giving golfers time to play, explore charming Scottish towns, and soak in the rich history that surrounds every fairway. For your nonprofit, the consignment model means zero upfront cost: you only pay HGA's $4,895 reserve if the package sells at auction. Every dollar your bidders raise above that reserve stays in your mission fund. It's a proven formula—golf trips move paddles, and this one carries the weight of golf's own origin story.
The experience your winner walks into
Your winners arrive in Edinburgh and check into the Apex Waterloo Hotel for five nights at the heart of Scotland's capital. They'll tee off at Dunbar Golf Club, where the links wind through coastal landscape steeped in golfing history, then play a second round at Kilspindie Golf Club, experiencing the authentic Scottish golf that shaped the game itself. Between rounds, they explore Edinburgh's neighborhoods, wander Scottish towns, and absorb the culture and history that frame every moment of their trip. The Apex Waterloo puts them steps from the city's rhythm—restaurants, galleries, and the sense of being in a place where golf was born and still thrives. This is golf stripped of artifice: two courses, five nights, the Scottish landscape, and time to let the experience settle in.
