Even though the calendar may say June 21 is the official start of summer, I am declaring it has (unofficially) arrived in our Forks! Around these parts, warmer weather means it’s time to grab those clubs, don your golf shoes and hit the greens!
Whether you are a novice looking for a leisurely 9-holes or an advanced player wanting a challenge, our #SimplyGrand cities can supply the perfect course of/for action.
