Chas reflected on years past as well as this year,

“We really enjoy seeing so many enthusiastic golfers out every year. I think it is really important to harvest the love of golf young, it is such a great sport that teaches our youth so many valuable lessons that they will continue to use through all aspects of their lives. Without the support of the community, Manitou Beach Golf Course, parents, golfers and Centennial Ford we would not be able to run such a successful program."

Jenn talked about the growth of the program,

“The program has been consistently growing every year, I think our children may be our best marketing strategy. We are so fortunate to live in such a supportive community and have such a wonderful Golf Course so close”
