Special programs:

We’ve hosted PGA HOPE (twice with a third iteration planned for fall 2020) as well as clinics for Wounded Warrior Project. We hosted a virtual women’s golf day in June and will host our 2nd WOmen’s Golf Day event on Sep 1, 2020. Happy Hour Series is conducted every other Thursday in conjunction with fitting days put on by brand vendors, this is due to the lack of enduring ABC license due to City Regulations but allows for single-use licenses to make these accessible. We run Operation 36 as well as theFirst Tee programming curriculum from the facility.
