Perpetual Trophies

Each of the club's five majors are "trophies" events. Only two of these feature perpetual trophies. In events with Perpetual Trophies, winners receive a trophy that is theirs to keep, as well as possession of the perpetual trophy for one year. It is their responsibility to return in good condition any perpetual trophy won during the previous year.

Club Championship (Gross)

The Club Championship is one of the more prestigious major events, in part because it is the final event of the season. The Club Championship Low Gross Trophy was donated to the club by Aaron Walburg on 9/11/2002. Formerly a club championship trophy from the Lido Golf Club in Long Island, this was purchased at a New York City flea market in 1999. It stands 35" tall.

Perpetual Trophy Care [also available in PDF]
Please use the following guideline to maintain the condition of our perpetual trophies:

No Direct Sunlight
Please store trophies in an area not subject to direct sunlight. Sunlight will fade and warp the wood.

No Moisture
Please store trophies in an area free from moisture of any kind 

No Polishing
Please do not polish or apply silver polish. The trophies are, at best, silver platted. Silver polishes actually can damage the thin layer of silver. 

Transport/Handling
Some of the trophies are large and fragile. Please be extremely careful when transporting them. If moving them via a car it will be a very good idea to remove the tiny golf clubs from any figurine, and tape (masking tape) to the base of the trophy so as not to misplace it. Also if it is one of our larger trophies be sure and support it with both hands, one beneath the base and the other mid-way up the trophy.

Dusting
Please don’t use any chemicals when dusting. Also don’t dust using paper products, which are abrasive, and can cause small scratches. Use cotton, moistened with a small amount of water if necessary. Feather dusters are ok.

Engraving
This is best if done at Morrison O’Hara (especially for the Club Championship trophies. They have the templates on file):   

Morrison O’Hara, 1321 Fifth Street, Berkeley, CA, 94710    (510) 525-0700
