Course Improvement News

One of our goals for raising money was to design and build a new practice area. Well, we did it!  Bart Brandell and Troy Vitek put their heads together and made an awesome plan.  Bart got right to work creating and growing a new green. The new practice area will be perfect for chipping, pitching, and sand practice. 

Thank you Bart!!

The money needed for this project comes from the money raised at the Summer Smash golf tournaments and money donated to have your deceased loved ones name on our memorial sun.

The Summer Smash 2019 will be on June 15th.  Save the Date!  We have a hilarious comedian booked for the event after a fun golf tournament.

We also have a silent auction planned.  If you would like to donate to the function please call or email Janet Cantor.  [email protected] or 208-720-0849.
