Grab your friends, girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, husband, mother, father, sister, brother, cousins; anyone over 21 who likes a good time in a user-friendly environment.

Expenses include an LPGA teaching pro, range balls, course fees, golf clubs and healthy snacks. In 2011 a beginners program for 32 girls (ages 7-14) was provided and a junior league for 17 girls and boys (ages 10-15). To keep the program alive, MWGA needs your support.
