Please indicate any Growth of the Game initiatives your facility/academy has launched over the past year (please give specifics on such programs):
In the past year we have launched Girls Golf Experience Days, a 2 hour clinic that allows young girls the opportunity to try golf for the first time or find some other friends to golf with.
For our PGA Jr League program, we established “warm-up” sessions that started in February on our Golfzon simulators. We had 1 practice, and 1 match per week.
A golf in schools program was established to get golf in front of more students in our region – 4 schools were visited this year.
Our PGA Hope program, though originally established 3 years ago, was revamped to be a 30-minute lesson followed by 9-holes of play for the more experienced participants or additional instruction for our beginners.

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
Our facility recently switched to an academy, allowing a clear pathway for our students to follow. This pathway has group classes, clinics, and private lessons.
We established a Craft Beer League, and started a Spark League to allow more opportunities for our adult lessons to continue playing golf.

Off the course, we have added more social events including an Adults Only Easter Egg Hunt and live music on our patio to keep our guests at the facility for longer.
