Please indicate any Growth of the Game initiatives your facility/academy has launched over the past year (please give specifics on such programs):
I have continued these programs from last year as they have been very effective in helping people improver their game, increase range business and help me grow my business
* Free Game Assessment – People can sign up for an assessment of their game. No instruction is given. Most people will sign up for lessons.
* Once a Week Free Lesson – People put the name(business card) into a box. One drawing a week. I have found that most people have no idea what goes into a lesson Most will sign up for lessons
* Redding on the Road – This guest teaching. I now have 4 courses that I teach one weekend of each month. They are in Brookneal VA, Myrtle Beach, SC Athens, TN and Loudon,TN This allows me to bring quality instruction to courses that have no teaching presence.

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
* Walking the tee is still the best way to keep students engaged
* The V1 Video Analysis System allows me to send a recap of their lesson to their email and smartphone
* I offer my students to send me video of their swings for me to analyze
* Newsletter
* Posting students lessons on Instagram
* All first time students are sent a hand written not card thanking for their business and trusting me with their games. This is the most powerful element I do in keeping my students engaged
