Women’s Wine & Dine

Girl get your golf game on!

Women only Golf & Wine Event, 3:00 – 9:00. The Timbers at Troy Golf Course,Elkridge. $125. The purpose of this event is to provide women who don’t get the opportunity to golf, or who are intimidated by the sport, to get into it and have fun! With the inclusion of things like the WW&D Golf Rules (which feature a humorous take on traditional golf rules to facilitate understanding) as well as goofy hats for the foursome captains, and a ton of opportunities for golf newbies to win prizes based on their participation, it creates a welcoming environment for women to further explore the sport. This is truly a unique event and in the past two years converted quite a few “non golfers” into budding golf enthusiasts. http://www.womenandwineevents.com/girlgetyourgolfgameon.shtml to register.
