Singles Golf Party--Monday Nights--2009
Every Monday Night
Our weekly Learn to
Golf Party at Kennedy Golf course attracts 16 to 24 people every Monday
afternoon. The ladies love it because they are learning a new
recreational activity. The men are happy to help them learn and make the
evening fun!
This is not for
serious golfers.
Our "really-beginner"
golf events start at
5:30 when we meet on the west patio of the Kennedy
Golf Course Clubhouse. Groups start teeing off at 5:00 and continue
until 6:30 to accommodate those arriving from work.
We play on the short
Par-3 Course at Kennedy Golf Course at East Hampden and South Havana.
Later we go to the nearby
Fresh fish Company for late happy hour drinks and appetizers.

Hour.
Age Group--50+
Cost--$15
per person includes green fee, tee time and organization.
For Beginners--Two men team with two women team up to
play on the Par-3 course.
Meet and Learn--This is not serious competitive league
play. The purpose is for adult singles to meet and enjoy a fun sport.
It is a singles party at sunset on a lawn you don't have to mow.
Scramble Format--In this team event everyone hits their
first drive. Then ball landing in the best location is selected.
Everyone moves their ball to that location and plays from there.
Beginner golfers become "putt leaders" showing teammates the line of the
first putt. Occasionally they make one.
Volunteer Instructors--Experienced golfers are teamed
with beginners to give tips on techniques and help them learn on-course
skills. Many women have taken lessons but never felt comfortable on a
full-length course.
Cost--$15 per person includes green fee, tee time and
organization.
Need Clubs?--Loaner sets of 4-5 clubs are available at
no cost.
Fast Play--The Par-3 can be played in under two hours
compared to a nine hole course at over 2 1/2 hours.
Changing Clothes--The lower level restrooms at Kennedy
have changing rooms.
No Commitment--You do not have to play each week or
rush from work. Tee times will start at 5:00 and go until 6:00 p.m.
Everyone should be finished by 7:30.
Bad Weather--We won't play but will still get together
for indoor lessons, the meet & greet party and drinks.
No Event Conflicts--We play on Monday nights to avoid
Tuesday Downtown Organization (TDO) parties, Elway's Nightclub Patio
Parties on Wednesday nights and Marti's Glenmoor Party on Thursday
nights.
Friendly Competition--Team scores are compared over
drinks at the end of play for bragging rights and golf prizes are
awarded.
