New 2009 Lapeer Junior Golf League seeks players

A summer youth golf program – The 2009 Lapeer Junior Golf League - is in the process of forming and invites young people between the ages of 10 and 17 who live or go to school in Lapeer County to sign up for the program.

It is a fun and inexpensive way for young people to play and improve their golf game.

Depending on the number of entries, the LJGL will be divided into four divisions. Participants will be eligible to play four qualifying rounds of golf all leading up to a season ending tournament. The only cost for the program, including the golf, is a $50 entry fee.

The qualifying rounds will be played on Friday mornings, June 19, 26, July 10 and 17, with the tournament to be played on Friday, July 31. In the event of rain, the tournament will be held on Friday, August 7.

Tee times will be from 6:45 a.m. to 7:45 a.m. New participants and at least one parent or guardian should attend one of two preliminary rules meetings at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, June 2, or Tuesday June 9 at Lake Nepessing Golfland, 1125 Lake Nepessing Road.

Registration forms may be picked up at Lake Nepessing Golfland, 1125 Lake Nepessing Road or the Lapeer Country Club, 3786 Hunt Road, both in Elba Township. For more information call Mr. Steve Stearns at (810) 667-2418, ext. 3114.
