Added in 2025 Spring Training Classes . These classes were for women when wanted to get started before our PGA Golf Magazine Best Practice Program began in June. These classes covered instruction from the Green back to the Tee, Core fundamental Instruction lead by me. I provided the lead Instruction and then we broke off into smaller groups with the Assistant Professionals. The ladies who were new to golf the season prior enjoyed getting a jump start before the 10 week program began in June.

End 68 Hours of Hunger- Instruction Meets Philanthropy feature in the November 2018 PGA Magazine issue for giving back to the local community through volunteer instruction in June July and August each season raising over $2,000 each season. 100% goes to our local community filling 150 back packs full of healthy non-perishable food for children who have food insecurity. This is a passion of mine to help our local children in need. We have grown this program 20% each season ( a 6 week program held on Saturday's asking for a donation only to benefit end 68 hours of hunger).

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
Ladies Play Night is a 10 week program that includes a video sent on Monday's, the Players Meet on Thursdays and we have group instruction for the golfers covering the content from the video I send out on Monday's. The Ladies then go on the golf course for two hours where we have instruction on course as well helping reiterate the content we covered in the lesson.
