(you can also call, but I may not pick up my cell immediately if I’m on the golf course)All cancelled groups can make up the time at another group that is of the same or less time.

- FAQ
- We accommodate any level. We have a chipping green, putting green, driving range and also
- use of the Lake Isle golf course (when available).
- Our philosophy on working with kids in these groups is; Fun! Fun! Fun! Safety is by far most
- important, but it doesn’t sacrifice fun. Game Based Learning, camaraderie and confidence
- building. It’s not a heavy instruction program. If you want that I suggest private or semi-private
- lessons.
- In our junior programs we promote kids using the part of the brain to mimic movement rather
- than how most adults learn by using previous experiences and using the logical thinking part of
- the brain (ie move your arm here and your head there) If you want that type of instruction we
- suggest private or semi-private lessons.
- Junior groups may combine / overlap with different age groups.
- Typical breakdown in what we do in a week is as follows (this is in no way a guarantee, it’s just a general idea) ;
- The first day of the week is mostly spent going over safety protocols, range etiquette and depending on course availability on-course etiquette and pace of play. We also cover the logistics of where bathrooms are, snack bar, lounge areas etc.
- 30% on course (if available)
- 5% exercises (typical during weather delays)
- 25% range
- 30% short game (chipping + putting) (typical during weather delays)
- 10% golf trivia, rules and etiquette (typical during weather delays)
- If we get bad weather we spend time putting, rules, etiquette, score keeping, watch a little golf,
- YouTube for golf, golf current events, golf trivia, etc.
- We have agendas/plans for approximately 25% under the canopy for bad weather. For example
- if there has been no rain Monday through Thursday, chances are Friday of that week will be
- held no matter how bad the weather. It’s possible we cancel for bad weather. This is hard to
- predict because of forecasts. Cancelled camps can come to another group to make up the time.
- If you miss we don’t have a make up policy.
- We have a snack bar that accepts cash or card. We don’t provide transportation.
