Who golfs in the rain?

Apparently a lot of people. The Golf Club at Newcastle in Newcastle, Wash. is among the "Top Clubs in Service" in North America and its grounds boast two 18-hole public golf courses surrounding the 44,000 square-foot clubhouse.

Although tee-times certainly dwindle during the rain-soaked winter days, Newcastle is open to patrons with the exception of visible frost or snow. If you aren't much of a golfer, enjoy a meal at the award winning Calcutta Grill or happy hour and billiards at the Wooly Toad.
