GREEN TEA

Well....it only took me a couple of days to figure out how to actually title these entries! haha Better late than never, I guess!

Well, today was another day spent mostly outside and the weather was beautiful!

We started off the morning by participating in "tent games" where we worked within our teams to set-up the starting tent based upon what we learned over the past few days of training. Once we got everything else set up, we were able to practice the starting process and pretend to take a couple of tee shots as well! We repeated this same process with the scoring area and were able to run through a couple of practice scenarios here as well! While this may sound kinda redundant...it was a ton of fun to be out in the sun and just enjoy our last few days of hanging out with all of the interns and full-time staff!

This afternoon, we were able to get out on the course and begin to prepare for the tournament that we are hosting here this weekend. We rotated between a bunch of stations while learning how to clean/stock the coolers, fill/place the sand buckets and bottles for the players, prepare the tournament scoreboard, place the recycling cans and product coolers, place banners in good locations, and choose the location for a scoring tent near the 9th green. This was another 5 or so hours spent outside on the course and we were definitely tired by the time we were done!

However, the two best parts of today was the fact that we got to interact with a couple of juniors out on the course and we were taken to Green Tea for dinner by one of the full-time staff members! While I am not usually one to eat a lot of Chinese/Japanese food, this sweet and sour chicken was some of the best that I have EVER had! There was sooo much food and I enjoyed every piece of it! haha

Well, I am exhausted and we have a early morning tomorrow since our tournament weekend begins with a practice round and parent/player meetings tomorrow...guess I should probably head to bed! Can't wait to start our tournament season!!
