Back at the 2011 THP Outing and Demo Day, Hanks and I talked about getting together to play some rounds of golf with a few folks who live around us in the greater NY/NJ/PA region over the summer. Next thing you knew, after a few drinks of course, we had synchronized our calendars to the weekend of July 29 -31, and the planning on our end began.
Well, it is the beginning of July and we've chosen some courses we want to play and picked a hotel for those who want to stay and play two or all three days. So now we want to invite anyone who is interested in getting together with Hanks and myself to play some golf, to let us know!
We have picked the Reading, PA area for this get together as it has easy access of I-78/PA Turnpike/I-476, there are lots of reasonably priced golf courses in the area (no round over $40 including cart on weekend AM), if someone doesn't want to golf all the days or has a significant other coming who isn't golfing there is plenty to do (outlet malls, zoo, water park, Hersey Park).
Here is the schedule:
On Friday afternoon, we are going to be playing RichMaiden Golf. It is a nice little warm up course, not to hard but promises to be a good time.
On Saturday (mid morning for those who just want to come for a day), we will be playing the Berkleigh Golf Club. This is the former home of the LPGA Betsy King Open. For those of you who may join us that were also at the Outing at PGA National, this a chance to play two courses in one year that have hosted major tour events.
On Sunday morning, we will be playing The Manor Golf Club. This will be a fairly early morning tee time so we can get 18 in before we have to hit the road.
The Days Inn in Wyomissing, PA is reasonable ($65 - 80 a night with a AAA discount or a two night stay), has a few restaurants/bars in walking distance and is where I will be staying. If you are staying over, you will need to book your own room.
If you want to join us, PM Hanks & I with when you are coming, if is a couple, let us know if you both want to play, and if you are staying the weekend by July 18 so we can book tee times.
(Note, this is not an official THP event of any kind, it is just a group of fellow THPers who live close enough to each other who want to play some golf together).
Another little note for those in the NorthEast: No, I haven't forgotten and yes, I will be putting something together for Early Fall in the CT/MA/RI area if you don't want to make the trek to Central PA.
