Our GolfPro David Boles will be introducing a new, free Junior summer program for parents/grandparents who have children/ grandchildren visiting them. The premise being an opportunity to “shadow” the GolfPro for a couple of hours. A sign-up list of times and dates available will be at the ProShop for those interested in having their young golfer or guest involved. It’s an opportunity for any junior golfer or teen to have a glimpse of a behind the scenes golf operation. Age is a consideration as it’s not intended to be a sitting service so the participant must be able to understand and do small tasks. For ages 10-16, boys or girls and not more than 2 per session with a time limit of 2 hours. Further details will soon be listed on the website and will be posted at the ProShop, OSPREY and at other suitable locations. Commencing June 1st through September 1st.
