The LPGA is Coming Back To Town!!
I am very excited announce that the nationally acclaimed LPGA-USGA Girls Golf Program will be back again in Greater Washtenaw County. Brookside Golf Course in Saline will once again be the home for this great program. As Site Director and Lead Instructor, along with the Ann Arbor Women's Golf Association, the University of Michigan Women's Golf Club and Brookside Golf Course, we are honored to be involved in this initiative which strives to change the lives of young girls through the game of golf.
For 28 years, LPGA-USGA Girls Golf has inspired girls to dream big and empower them through the game of golf. More than 300,000 girls have discovered their swings through our program and we worked to change the face of the game by reaching 50,000 girls in 2017. All girls age 7-17 are encouraged to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
The foundation of our program are the 5 E's. We strive to Empower, Engage, Exercise, Energize and Enrich the lives of our girls through the game of golf.
The 9 week program starts on Wednesday, June 2oth and runs every Wednesday from 1-3pm. Girls will receive golf instructions, play and enjoy all kinds of games, get out on the golf course, learn rules and etiquette and have a lot of fun! We will also have an opportunity to visit the LPGA Volvik Championship in Ann Arbor. Cost is only $50 for the summer!!
HOW CAN YOU HELP? Please pass the word to let the young golfers in your life know about the program. We are in need of girls sets of clubs, golf bags, and golf balls. We are also in need of donations to help fund and support our program. If you know of anyone willing to volunteer their time we are always in need of help during our sessions on Wednesdays.
