Please read carefully...
On the first day of the "Junior Golf Academy" we will meet at the 3-hole practice center located on the service road at the far west end of the Emerald Greens parking lot. See the diagram above. Please enter the golf course on the east side using Goodwin Ave, and proceed straight ahead through both parking lots and onto the gravel service road. The 3-hole practice center will be just ahead on your right.
Directions to Emerald Greens:
Emerald Greens Golf Course is located 3 miles west of Hastings on MN 55. From Rosemount, take County 42 east past MN 52 until County 42 ends at MN 55. Take a right on MN 55 heading towards Hastings and go past the cell tower. Take your next right at Goodwin Ave and go 1/4 mile. The entrance to Emerald Greens is on the right.
Dress Code:
Every sport has a uniform, and golf is no different. No, I don’t mean plaid, but please dress in proper golf attire. This means nice t-shirts or golf shirts, modest shorts, and proper footwear (golf shoes or tennis shoes). Please, absolutely no sandals, cut-offs, and specifically for girls, no loose shirts that flop open when you are in your golf address position. A simple rule: If a shirt has sleeves, it doesn’t need a collar. If it has a collar it doesn’t need sleeves.
Rainout and make-up lesson information:
In the event of poor weather, please call 651-683-6969 and select voice mail box 84498. Alternate plans will be announced through the greeting on my voice mail.
Make-up lessons will only be given in the event of a planned lesson being canceled due to inclement weather. If you miss any scheduled lesson, please feel free to make-up any missed lesson by attending any other lesson with the age group and time that best fits your schedule. Please try to limit this, as classes should not become chronically overloaded due to individual schedule conflicts.
