Best range promotion: GOLFFEST- We host a multi-vendor demo day in the spring with a party atmosphere that we call GOLFFEST. With six companies present, we provide our members with a good food spread, drinks, and attention from our golf professionals. Creating a theme such as GOLFFEST, and utilizing our short game area, putting green, and tee space creates an atmosphere that our members don’t want to miss out on.

Special programs:  We support and allow access to our course and practice facilities for our local junior high and high school men’s and women’s golf teams. We also host our local college teams a limited amount during the season (UAB, Samford Univ., Birmingham Southern College).
