The Preserve at Oak Meadows
We had such a great turn out last year and made so many fantastic memories with you all (check out pics from last year to the HERE). We are eager to make this year equally fun and exciting.
And in the tradition of alternating locations for our members, we will be hosting our outing at the newly renovated, driving friendly course - The Preserve at Oak Meadows! After 2 years of construction and renovation, the Preserve reopened in 2018 with brand new layout, practice areas, and scenery. We are thrilled to check out the new course with you. So JOIN US for a fantastic day of golfing, networking, laughing and well, just a good time!
Make sure to book early to get discounts on twosomes and foursomes! Our Early Bird Special is OPEN NOW until APRIL 1ST ONLY!
