Spring Is Officially Here

Masters Week
Golf season “officially” begins today with the 1st round of the Masters in Augusta. Mississippian, Steve Wilson, plays at 10:29am and is playing with 2 time Champion, Tom Watson and Euro star Ian Poulter. I wish Steve good luck and great play - you can follow him on the web at masters.org.

Golf Course News
We have several membership specials at Whisper Lake and Patrick Farms thru April, so please call for details - these deals are very, very good! The Dogwoods Golf Course in Grenada has just been ranked #9 in the State and will celebrate its 2nd Birthday in June - it's a pretty amazing golf course. Quail Hollow in McComb is in great shape and is a couple of weeks ahead of the courses in the metro area. So if you’re looking for a real treat, make the short drive down I-55 and check it out.

Lake Caroline Update
There is much talk around town about my involvement and interest in Lake Caroline, some true and some not. Here are the facts: I am very interested and am making every effort possible to acquire the course. However, it is not an easy deal to put together and may or may not happen. I have received incredible support from the residents of Lake Caroline and will continue to work hard to make it work. Please understand that if it does not come together by the end of April, then it probably won’t until next year. Many thanks to all who offer support and encouragement..
