Signups will begin at hole 1 every other Sunday at 7:00 AM and we will begin at 7:30. Handicap scores will be kept up with and giveaways will be given away for various closest to the pin shots for each tournament.

Common Table
Bringing people back to the dinner table!
Everyday, like clockwork, we get hungry and have to work through the age-old question of "what's for dinner?". Young or old, single, or married, with or without kids, we have to feed one or more persons each and every day. Join us to learn a tried and true method for advance meal planning for a week or a month. Find new recipes, new friends, and new methods for planning, shopping, prepping, and assembling meals that can be refrigerated to eat that week, or frozen to eat later in the month. In this one day cooking class we will offer 12 meal selections. (You can make as many of the meals as you desire.)
The cost for the day is based on the number of meals you will be preparing. There is one class scheduled for each quarter of the year.
