New Course Ratings
The Florida State Golf Association has finished up rating the golf course , and you will see some small changes when it comes to the overall yardage of the tees you play . We will be ordering new scorecards for the golf carts , but the scorecards we print from the computer for events will have the new updated information correct .
Adopt A Hole Program
This program is for anyone wanting to help make the hole they live on or their favorite hole look better than it already does . Those that sign up are asked to fix divots , repair ball marks on the green and clean up any debris on or around the hole . We will have monthly winners and helper events throughout the year . So far , we have these people participating on these holes : # 5 Dave Conway , # 8 Rod Kite , # 11 John Doran , # 13 Mike Perrone , # 14 Tim Milcich & The Giliams , # 15 Dan Sherman & Dave Jones , # 17 The Haake Family , and # 18 Larry Anderson . As you can see several holes are yet to be spoken for , so anyone interested please let the pro shop know so we can get you on the list .
