The Summer Junior Golf Camp series is now in full bloom at beautiful Guilford Lakes Golf Course. The camps are being run by the course’s new PGA Professional, Mike Papp.

“It has taken some time to get the word out, but the camps are now in full force,” said Papp. “The parents are already signing their kids up for next year and, at this rate, we are considering after-school fall programs.”

Papp said that the young golfers have been enjoying their experience at the camp and added that some of them have been playing alongside their parents.

“One of the most significant parts of developing successful instructional programs is that they create new golfers, young and old alike,” said Papp. “Every year, the game loses players, because people move or because of health issues or time constraints, etc. One of the great things about Guilford Lakes Golf Course is that you can play your round in less than one and a ½ hours. The public really loves that convenience.”

There is still room to sign your child up for the upcoming camps. For info, contact Papp at 860-898-0138.
