Hi Neighbor!
My name is Chris, and I am a Shellaholic!
Unlike many Shellaholics, my obsession with beachcombing and collecting sea shells didn’t begin at an early age, but rather when my daughter was a toddler learning to walk on the beach with me. By the time she was 4 years old, she and I would wake up by 6:00 AM and head straight to the beach to look for the prettiest and most unique shells we could find. We would spend hours looking for the coveted Whelk Shell that was so hard to find. We were extremely lucky that most summers we would bring one home with us, and we still have them displayed on our desks and bookshelves.

Registration is open for the 2023 Play-a-Round Golf Junior Summer Camp Program!
We are dedicated to inspiring juniors to have fun and learn the great game of golf. Our summer camp uses a step-by-step approach that offers a foundation for juniors to learn, succeed, and continue with confidence in the sport.
The program covers all areas of the game, focusing on fun, improvement, and course management. Our teaching professionals work on strategy, shot selection, focus, and the rules of golf. We infused our teaching with plenty of games and competitions that help ensure golfers understand values such as perseverance, honesty, and integrity.
Here at Play-a-Round Golf, we have created an awarding and safe environment where juniors can play, learn, and grow together. We have built into every camp our motto that learning works best when fun comes first.
