As many of you have known or maybe have just learned I have taken the next step in continuing my pursuit to be a PGA Golf Professional. To help offset the costs of my schooling this fall we held a fundraiser raffle, it is an odd feeling having your name up on a board asking for help. The amount of support I received though was overwhelming, and we met our goal quicker than I could have ever imagined. While I tried to thank each person individually, I want to say a big thank you again for everybody reaching out and helping me pursue my goal of becoming a Class “A” PGA Professional. I am very grateful for the help you guys have provided me and am very happy to be a part of the team here as your Assistant Pro. Thank you all very much, Conner Lee Ladies Association Marta LeMoyne Fall is here along with cooler weather but that doesn’t keep the hearty gals from Jerome Country Club from play the great game of golf.

Babe will be playing October 5th and 6th in the Champion of Champions at Blue Lakes Country Club. Laura Lee Ericson is our 2019 Senior Club Champion and will also be playing.
