Special programs:

  • Get Golf Ready – We offer 5 week clinics to the local community and provide an additional discount to Kohler Company associates. The program is designed to introduce people to the game or help intermediate golfers improve. We offer a spring session and a fall session that concludes with a nine hole tournament and party.
  • Junior Golf – Our summer is filled with junior golf. We have roughly 200 kids that participate in the program from the beginning of June through the middle of August. The kids are 5-18 years old and vary in their skill level.
  • PGA Junior League – We participate in Sheboygan County’s PGA Junior League. All of the kids on the team are from the local community.
  • Golf In Schools – The professional staff spends two weeks in the winter teaching golf to kids in their gym class. This is a great way to give back to the community while growing the game.
  • Golf Schools – In addition to private and resort lessons, we offer golf schools to organizations looking for ways to entertain their clients.
