We are pleased to announce the Annual Masters Series Summer Conference will take place nestled in the beautiful rolling hills of southern Indiana at the spectacular setting of the historic French Lick Springs Resort & Casino!
Five of ICLEF’s Masters Series programs will meet concurrently Thursday & Friday, July 25-26 while also allowing for time to enjoy fellowship and all there is to see and do at the brand new French Lick Valley Tower, French Lick Springs Resort & Casino as well as the remarkable setting of the neighboring West Baden Springs Hotel & Spa.
These Live In-Person Only Seminars are part of ICLEF's Masters Series and are designed as advanced-level session for those practitioners who are experienced attorneys. This discussion-oriented curriculum will take you deeper into tougher, more challenging matters you may face in your practice. Trademarks of The Masters Series include a low faculty-to-attendee ratio, seating arrangements that facilitate interaction, and topics designed to make you think, while providing you with answers to the tough questions and difficult situations you may encounter in your practice. Bring your questions and toughest issues to share with the group.

Golf Courses:
Few things get the blood pumping like the mention of Donald Ross, Pete Dye and Tom Bendelow in the same sentence. Nowhere else in the world can a golfer play courses designed by each of these noted and prolific designers at one resort destination. The rolling hills of southern Indiana provide a beautiful yet challenging experience with 45 holes of legendary golf.
The Pete Dye Course
The Pete Dye Course hosted the 2015 Senior PGA Championship, won by Colin Montgomerie, along with multiple Senior LPGA Championships and Big Ten Conference Championships. Legendary designer Pete Dye carved the course into the hillside of one of the highest points in Indiana to create a unique and scenic Indiana golf experience. Click here to book tee times.
The Donald Ross Course
This classic course designed by iconic architect Donald Ross underwent a $5 million restoration in 2006. When the project was completed, 80 of Ross’ trademark bunkers with flat bottoms and deep, gnarly faces were once again in place along with expanded, square or rectangular shaped greens that severely undulate. Thirty-five of these bunkers are original to the course that Ross constructed in 1917. The course is a par 70 and plays to 7,000 yards. The Donald Ross course has been rated the No. 2 public course in Indiana by GolfWeek every year since 2011. Click here to book tee times.
The Valley Links Course
The Valley Links Course is a nine-hole, fully walkable conversion of the 18-hole Tom Bendelow design that was original to French Lick Springs Hotel. This par-36 course maintains the park-like atmosphere of the Bendelow course with rolling fairways, Scottish-style fescue grasses and strategically placed bunkers. Experienced golfers are certain to take notice of the championship tee length of nearly 3,500 yards. Click here to book tee times.
