Hustle and bustle at Shelter Island Country Club

The summer is in full swing at Goat Hill.

The rate of play has been near all-time levels. The Owen Dickson Junior Golf Program is up and running and has proven to be a success.

Thanks to all the volunteers who have made that happen. Also, our new affiliation with golf pro Eric Schultzel is going very well. If you feel a golf lesson is in order for your game, stop by or call the pro shop.

Given the current hot conditions, the irrigation that was completed last year has been a game changer for all the greens and tee boxes.

The fairways are running long and the course is playing like a links course. Thanks to all members and non-members for your support so far this summer.

Plan on coming out and playing a round or two this weekend. See you on the first tee.
