The Claim Jumper Invitational

It all begins with an idea. The Claim Jumper Invitational was born from the vision and passion of a dedicated group of members who believed Serrano was destined for something more—something legendary. This group, now proudly known as The Oaks, set out to reimagine what a Member-Guest tournament could be. Fueled by camaraderie, competition, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, they laid the foundation for what has become one of the most anticipated events of the year. Their mission was simple: create a tournament experience that rivaled the best in the region while staying true to the unique spirit and community of Serrano.

What started as an ambitious idea quickly turned into a signature tradition. The Oaks poured their time, creativity, and energy into building an invitational that blends elite golf, high-end hospitality, and unforgettable moments on and off the course. From its immersive branding and bold themes to the now-iconic Saturday Night Finale, the Claim Jumper Invitational reflects the heart of Serrano—elevated, spirited, and member-driven. It’s more than a tournament; it’s a celebration of everything that makes this Club special.

With the dream firmly in place, the next step was execution—and The Oaks delivered in spectacular fashion. What followed was a meticulous effort to build an event that didn’t just meet expectations, but shattered them. From hand-selected tee gifts and premium tournament branding to professional staging and on-course activations, every detail was designed to deliver a “tour-level” experience for both members and their guests. Backed by generous sponsors who share the vision, the Claim Jumper Invitational has evolved into a fully immersive, first-class event that rivals any Member-Guest tournament in the country.

Over the course of four unforgettable days, participants are treated to competitive golf, elevated hospitality, and a social atmosphere that sets a new standard. It all kicks off with the high-stakes Wednesday Night Shootout—a crowd favorite that sets the tone for the days to come. From signature food stations and elevated beverage offerings to custom experiences and the electric energy of the Saturday Night Finale, every moment is built to impress. The Claim Jumper isn’t just Serrano’s marquee tournament—it’s a masterclass in what a Member-Guest experience can be.

The Claim Jumper Invitational was never meant to stay the same—it was built to evolve. Guided by the motto “Better than last year, not as great as next year,” the tournament continues to raise the bar each season. What sets the Jumper apart isn’t just the elite competition or the tour-level presentation—it’s the community spirit that fuels it. From the members who play, to the volunteers who support, to the local businesses and sponsors who step up year after year, the event has grown into something that transcends golf. It’s a celebration of Serrano’s culture, pride, and passion.

That spirit of growth extends beyond the course. Each year, the Claim Jumper leverages its momentum to make a meaningful impact through philanthropic efforts, rallying participants and partners around causes that matter. Whether it’s supporting youth golf, local nonprofits, or member-driven initiatives, the Invitational serves as a platform for giving back. It’s this combination of excellence, energy, and heart that ensures the Claim Jumper doesn’t just grow in size—it grows in purpose, connection, and legacy.
