The spring season is upon us and we are anxiously awaiting the return of the warm, sunny weather. Be sure to get your golf clubs out of the closet and shine them up for the 2008 golf season!
The 2008 golf season will begin with a bang on April 19 & 20, as we will be hosting the JCC Fun Fest scramble. This is a 2-man scramble event that costs $250 per team or $300 per team with a cart. It is filling up quickly! In fact the 1pm Shot Gun is already full and the 8am shot gun is getting fuller by the day! If you would like more information regarding this event, please call us at 932-2410 and we will be happy to help.
