A national program aimed at getting more junior golfers on the course

There’s an effort to get more junior golfers on our courses.

Two area golf courses are involved in the Take A Kid to the Course event.

Essentially, if you bring a junior golfer to Osprey Links in Callander and Eagle Lake in South River between now and Sunday the junior who is 16 and under doesn’t have to pay green fees.

The program was launched 13 years ago by the National Golf Course Owners Association of Canada in an effort to grow the game.

The pro at Osprey Links, Jeff Rogerson says this is all about getting more junior golfers on the course.
