We have done many since the range opened in early August.

membership.
2) We held an official Grand Opening of the Practice Facility with our professional staff doing clinics in the short game practice area and on the range tee.
3) We held numerous demo/fitting days (Callaway, Taylor Made, Ping and Titleist).
4) We held specialty clinics (Driving School, Slice Solving, etc.).
