The first playdate will be Sunday May 29 with tee times beginning at 2:00 .

 

We will ask for each junior to give us his or her e-mail so that we may notify each of them on a weekly basis of any time changes.  We will have outings which may alter the above times of play from week to week and we will strive to offer two dates per week.
