Best range promotion: We offer an annual pass that includes unlimited Range Balls. We had 102 season passes sold that included 187 people. In addition, our golf club members received the added benefit of the Golf Center Facility and that includes 154 memberships.
Special programs: Our facility runs adult education programs through 3 of the local communities. These classes consisted of 114 adults being introduced to golf. The classes ran for 5 weeks each and the adults had the option of a women only or mixed class. We also run in school programs for the local school system where an instructor will spend a week with the physical education teacher at each school teaching golf. We then run after school programs through the local parks and rec department.
