Director's Corner

Our program continues to be successful and to grow each year.  As a result, we are expanding our Management Team by adding a new position, Assistant Area Director.  Please go to our Get Involved page to see a description of the job and its duties.

We are still in need of volunteer  coach and assistant coaches for our Golf Skills program.  Coaches would be training our golf beginners the basics: putting, pitching, and driving.  Please contact Gregg Meade

 if you can help us out. 

The 50 Wishes Children's Charity Campaign has chosen our program to be one of the beneficiaries of its fund raising efforts, along with the Ronald McDonald House and the Make a Wish Foundation.  They will be holding a raffle on July 31, 2009, and a golf tournament on October 12, 2009.  Please
