Please indicate any Growth of the Game initiatives your facility/academy has launched over the past year (please give specifics on such programs):
We continue adding "topic specific" 1 hour clinics (putting, sand, pitching, etc.) which are very popular. Monthly wine and cheese women's clinics. "Big Break" style evenings with pizza, wine and beer. Free seminars on rules, ball flight laws, etc.

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
Our demographic responds best to weekly email blasts which include upcoming events, special offers, player accomplishments, staff tournament results and always a video tip which recipients love.
Strong social media presence also aids in keeping our customers informed.
