Please indicate any Growth of the Game initiatives your facility/academy has launched over the past year (please give specifics on such programs):
I started a junior girls swing clinic every other weekend, 9-hole playing clinics for women, sips and tips clinics for women in the evening, and we added a fall season of PGA Junior League

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
The junior girls swing clinic was added to encourage girls age 5-12 to begin their golfing journey in an unintimidating, encouraging environment. I started doing 9-hole playing lessons with ladies to get them over the fear of being on the course and to discuss course management strategies that we can’t do on the range. I also added a weekly after work hours clinic for women where we grabbed a beverage from the beverage cart and headed to the practice facility for a supervised practice. They were allowed to ask about any trouble clubs or shots that they wanted. I started at a new facility this year so I’ve spent a lot of time rebuilding my client base and finding my place in the instruction program.
