2010 Junior Golf Program
Our Head Golf Professional, Jim Vernon, and his Professional Staff would like to invite our members’ family to participate in the 2010 Junior Golf Program. We have organized an exciting program of instruction, games, and competition for our young golfers. We will be offering a Junior Clinic and several Golf Camps. We will be focusing on Etiquette, Safety, Swing Fundamentals, Short Game, Rules, and Basic Course Management. To enhance their competitiveness we have scheduled two tournaments to conclude the program – The Parent/Child and the Junior Club Championship.
The Junior Programs are available to all Golf Members. In the event it is not filled, the program will be available to Swim Members, Social Members, and Guests of Members.
The Mission:
Our goal is to teach the rules, etiquette, traditions, and the skills necessary to appreciate the game of golf, in a safe and fun environment for all children. Through golf, we would like to instill values that inspire honor and integrity, which will stay with them the rest of their lives.
