Memorial Day

      Like many others, I too am looking forward to the first holiday of summer: lots of grilled food and the golf season really gets going!
      However, I also think back to my grandfather; who passed away a few years ago and served in WWII. I love looking at pictures he sent of he and his buddies to my Mom. He was so young and though he told me of the good times; I can't imagine the stress he was under at other times-essentially risking his life and the lives of the people who wanted freedom so badly.
      He was a proud, patriotic man; who got choked up every time the National Anthem was played. When I was young, he took me to commemorative events as a way to pay respect for those who served and gave the ultimate sacrifice. Through his example, I have a deep admiration to those who serve or have served.
     
God Bless all members of our Armed Forces and Thank you for those who sacrificed your lives so that I may live free.


We have placed American Flags on the 18th hole of each course. Please take the time and place the flags in the holders provided, as to not let the flag touch the ground. Thank You!
