Thornridge Golf Course welcomes our youth to participate in its Junior Golf Camp Wednesday, May 24th – Thursday, June 2nd. The goal of this camp is to introduce or improve on the fundamentals of golf and to grow the game with our younger generation. We will teach a lot on the fundamentals of the swing but also spend time learning the rules of the game and also have some competitions and fun throughout. The camp is for kids ages 7-14. See below for the camp schedule and focus of instruction. If you have any questions about this camp please contact Tom Schneider in the Pro Shop at 402-761-3606.
